Hearty Vegetarian Chili
Ingredients
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 cup chopped carrot
  • 3/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
  • 1/4 cup chopped celery
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder, or more to taste
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1 1/8 teaspoons salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 3/4 teaspoon dried basil
  • 3/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 (28 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes with juice
  • 3 cups black beans, undrained
  • 2 cups water
  • 1/2 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
  • 1/4 cup red wine
  • 3/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco®)
Instructions
1
Preheat a large cooking vessel over an intermediate heat source; warm olive oil within the pot and sauté sliced mushrooms, diced onion, chopped carrot, green bell pepper segments, celery stalks, minced garlic, chili powder, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper until the onion starts to lose its crispness, approximately 2-3 minutes.
2
Introduce canned tomatoes along with their accompanying liquid into the pot; then, add cooked black beans accompanied by their own liquid, water, tomato paste, red wine, and hot pepper sauce.
3
Gradually increase the heat to its highest point, allowing the mixture to reach a rolling boil; subsequently, decrease the heat to a low setting and let it simmer until all the vegetables have become tender, taking around 20 minutes to accomplish.
