Description

If you don't have sweet potatoes on hand, which add a noticeable sweetness to the dish, try substituting them with pumpkin or adding more carrots to the stew if you're lucky enough to find sweet, good carrots. It's best not to experiment with the other ingredients: for example, don't swap red wine for white, avoid replacing celery stalks with the root, and we don't recommend substituting regular onions for something more exotic—there's no point in making those changes.
