Ingredients

2 Onions (finely sliced)
1 medium butternut squash (peeled, deseeded, and cubed)
Boiling water
Approximately 5 3/4 cup mixed sliced mushrooms (we used Shitake mushrooms & chestnut mushrooms)
1 medium rutabaga (peeled, cubed)
1 1/2 cup chopped chestnuts (buy peeled, cooked & ready to use)
Sea salt (to taste)
A small handful of fresh thyme (finely chopped)
A handful of fresh Tarragon (optional)

Prep Time: 10 minutes (approximately)
Cooking Time: 70 minutes
Serves: 4

Method

Heat your favorite oil in a large casserole dish (we used cocoa butter)
Fry the onions for a few minutes until soft and translucent
Add the rutabaga, squash, mushrooms, and more seasoning to the casserole, and sweat for approximately 10 minutes… until the mushrooms are soft
Stir in the fresh thyme and chestnuts, and almost cover the ingredients with boiling water (if unsure best to add less, otherwise the stew will be too thin), add a little more seasoning
Once it comes to a boil reduce the heat, cover with a lid and gently simmer for 40-60 minutes
Season to taste and serve with fresh tarragon
