Ingredients
1 tsp olive oil1 small onion, cut into medium dice8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced3 cloves garlic, minced1 1/2 tsp dried sage1/2 tsp saltseveral pinches of freshly ground pepper1/2 cup yellow split peas3 cups vegetable broth3 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into 3/4 inch chunks4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch chunks2 heaping tbsp fresh thyme1 cup water1/4 cup all purpose flour3/4 cup frozen peas
Preheat a 4-qt pot over medium high heat. Saute the onions in the oil until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the mushrooms, sage, salt and black pepper and saute for 3 more minutes, until the mushrooms have released their moisture.
Add the split peas and vegetable broth, cover the pot and bring to a boil. Let boil for about 5 minutes, then add the potatoes and carrots. Lower the heat just a bit to a simmer and cook for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the split peas are tender and the potatoes and carrots are cooked. Stir the stew occasionally to make sure it doesn't burn or stick to the bottom.
In a measuring cup, mix the flour into the water to dissolve into a slurry. Add the thyme, slurry and frozen peas to the pan. Cook, uncovered, for about 10 more minutes, stirring often. The stew should thicken and become more and more delicious.
Taste for salt and seasoning. Serve garnished with more fresh thyme.
