Vegetable Stew

This is the first vegan recipe I ever made! It's from Terry Pratchett's "Nanny Ogg's Cookbook".

• 1 tbsp paprika
• 1 400g can mixed beans (I normally use kidney, hard to find good mixed ones)
• 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
• salt & pepper

1. Heat the oil and cook the leeks, green pepper, carrot, and garlic for a few minutes
2. Add the mushrooms and cook for another few minutes
3. Add the vegetable broth, tomatoes, and paprika
4. Bring to a boil, let simmer for 15-20 minutes
5. Add the beans and balsamic vinegar, and season
6. Cover, simmer for 20-25 minutes
