Directions
-
Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Add the diced onion and minced garlic; sauté until the onion is transparent and garlic is fragrant, about 4 minutes.
-
Stir in the chopped pumpkin and potatoes; cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes to lightly coat them in the oil.
-
Sprinkle the whole-wheat flour over the vegetables and stir continuously until the flour is fully dissolved and cooked into the mixture.
-
Gradually add the vegetable broth and water, 1 cup at a time, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
-
Whisk in the prepared mustard, ground cinnamon, and apple cider vinegar until evenly combined.
-
Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low.
-
Simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and the pumpkin and potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
-
Add the frozen peas and corn to the pot.
-
Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the peas and corn are heated through.
-
Taste the stew and season with salt and pepper as needed.
