VEGETABLE STEW WITH DUMPLINGS (VEGETARIAN)
This is a very different vegetable stew just packed with flavor - and is one of my family's most requested and one of my very favorites. It is based on a recipe from one of my favorite cookbooks, "Tis the Season - A Very Vegetarian Christmas", by Nanette Blanchard. Although this comes from a Christmas cookbook, I like to serve this all year long, although it is especially comforting in the fall and winter months when it's cold. The original recipe calls for a puff pastry crust, which could make quite an elegant meal fit for company. However, I like to serve it with dumplings, so it's more everyday for my family. I'm sure it would be equally delicious without the dumplings - although my family would be upset if I didn't include them (the dumplings are usually fought over in my house). I've included just a basic dumpling recipe, but if you have one of your own, by all means please use it! You could also use some refrigerated biscuit dough if you have it on hand. This is something we might eat on a Sunday evening at our house, although the stew actually comes together quite quickly. I hope you enjoy it as much as my family does.

Steps:
- To make the stew, melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic and curry powder and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in the broth, carrots and parsnips. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook for 15 minutes. Stir in the celery root and sweet potato and cook for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, to make the dumplings, combine the flour, baking powder, salt and mace in a bowl. Rub in the butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Mix in the currants. Stir in the milk, just to combine. On a lightly floured surface, with floured hands, shape the dough into 1-inch balls.
- Form a smooth paste by stirring 1/4 cup of the simmering broth into 3 tablespoons of flour, then stir it into the stew. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place the dumplings on top of the simmering stew, cover and cook for 15 minutes. Divide the stew and dumplings among 4 bowls. Garnish with the parsley and serve.
