VEGAN/VEGETARIAN PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM CHILI



Vegan/Vegetarian Portobello Mushroom Chili image

I strongly recommend to make this chili a day or up to 3 days ahead as the flavors will ripen and intensify, make this as spicy as you like by adjusting the chili flakes, the longer this cooks for the better it will be so don't be afraid to simmer for even 3 hours, and don't be skimpy with the garlic! :)

Portobello Mushroom Chili Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by GuidingVegan

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 medium ancho chilies
4 cups vegetable or chicken stock
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
8 portobello caps, wiped clean, gills scraped, chopped
4 large cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 large onion, chopped
1 green or red chili pepper, thinly sliced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
A scant palmful of smoked paprika
A scant palmful of cumin
A scant palmful of coriander
A pinch of ground cinnamon
2 cans black beans, rinsed and drained (15 ounces each)
1 can fire-roasted diced or crushed tomatoes (15 ounces)
1 ripe avocado
1 cup vegan sour cream or cashew cream
Juice of 1 lime
A handful of fresh cilantro or fresh parsley
Toasted pepitas or sunflower seeds, for garnish (optional)
A couple of handfuls of tortilla chips (optional)

Steps:

  • Stem and seed the ancho chilies and place them in a pot with the stock. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and keep warm. Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat with 1/4 cup EVOO, four turns of the pan. Add the mushrooms to the hot EVOO and brown for 12-15 minutes, then add the garlic, onion, chili pepper, salt and black pepper and soften 5-6 minutes more. Season with a spice mixture of paprika, cumin, coriander and cinnamon. Puree the reconstituted ancho chilies and stock in a food processor. Add the chili stock mixture, beans and tomatoes to the chili. Cook for 15 minutes until thickened, then turn off the heat, cool, cover and chill for make-ahead meal. To reheat: Cover the chili and place over medium to medium-high heat, stirring frequently until the chili bubbles, then uncover and simmer until ready to serve. Combine the avocado, sour cream, lime juice, cilantro, and salt in food processor and process into a smooth avocado-sour cream sauce for stirring into the chili. Serve the chili in shallow bowls and garnish with the avocado sauce, pepitas, if using, and a few tortilla chips, if using.

Tips:

  • For a smoky flavor, roast the portobello mushrooms before adding them to the chili.
  • Use a variety of beans in your chili for a more complex flavor and texture.
  • Add a dollop of Greek yogurt or sour cream to each bowl of chili for a creamy finish.
  • Serve the chili with your favorite toppings, such as shredded cheese, diced avocado, chopped cilantro, or crumbled tortilla chips.
