What’s the first thing that comes in your mind when you hear the work “Bourguignon”? Beef, right? Actually Beef Bourguignon is the only version that I know of for this dish until I ventured into Meat Free Monday and stated exploring more meat free dishes.

• It’s delicious and flavorful even without the meat
• The sauce, you’re going to love it. It’s sweet and salty, perfect consistency
• Can be served with steam rice, pasta, mashed potato and can also be baked as a soup covered with puff pastry, like chicken pot pie style.
• Last but not the least, its budget friendly

What type of Mushroom to use?

I personally prefer using white button mushroom, or crimini mushrooms because they are firmer and they have better texture to the dish. The mushroom remains plump so you get to see more chucks. Regardless what kind of Mushroom you choose, use the fresh mushroom and not the canned mushroom.

Can I add wine to simmer the mushroom?

Definitely. The original Beef Bourguignon is simmered in a combination of wine and broth. I don’t use alcohol in my dish so I substituted it with vegetable broth. You can make it 50% wine and 50% broth. Use the wine to de-glaze the mushroom then pour the broth next.
