Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in your pot over medium heat. Add onions, carrots, and celery, and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened.
  • Add halved mushrooms and cook for another 5 minutes until they release their juices.
  • Stir in garlic, thyme, oregano, and sage. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  • Sprinkle flour over the veggies and stir quickly to coat. Cook for another 1-2 minutes.
  • Slowly pour in vegetable broth while stirring to prevent lumps.
  • Add tomato sauce, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, bay leaves, potatoes, lentils, salt, and pepper.
  • Seal the pressure cooker lid and cook under pressure for 15-20 minutes.
  • Allow natural pressure release to keep veggies tender and broth thick.
  • Serve hot with fresh herbs or crusty bread.

Notes

Swap baby yellow potatoes with sweet potatoes for a sweeter twist, or use pre-sliced mushrooms to speed things up. Store in fridge up to 4 days or freeze up to 3 months.
