**Potatoes [variety]; diced
**Sweet potatoes; peeled and diced
**Rutabagas;peeled and diced
**Turnips;peeled and diced
**Carrots; cut vertical and horizontal
Shallots; 4-6 halved
White onion; 1, quartered, chunky
Garlic; several large cloves, rough chunks
**Kale; torn leaves
Olive oil; 2 tbs
Dry red wine; 1 cup
All-purpose flour; enough to coat vegetables
Roasted Vegetable stock; 3 cups [approx.]
Rosemary; fresh or a few pinches
Thyme; fresh or a few pinches
Bay leaf; 1
Cayenne pepper; few dashes
Fresh ground pepper; to taste
Salt; to taste
**There is no set amount of these ingredients, use more of what you prefer, and less or none of what you don't. Feel free to add any other vegetables that strikes your fancy, mushrooms, parsnips, celery, zucchini, bell pepper… whatever fits the flavor of the stew. Make it different each time, have fun.
Directions:
Heat olive oil in a stockpot and add shallots. Mildly caramelize, stir in garlic and continue cooking for 1-3 minutes. Put all vegetables [ex kale] in a large bowl and coat with flour*. Add vegetables and brown. Add red wine and cook until 1/2 liquid remains. Add stock, kale, and seasonings. Cook covered until vegetables are tender, remove bay leaf before serving.
*If the coating of flour doesn't make the stew thick enough, mix approximately 1/2 cup of flower in a small bowl with a bit of water until smooth, avoiding lumps.

Here’s a link to something that might help. I don’t know if you can lose 10kgs a week eating this, but it definitely is healthy. I’d be careful with those crash diets though. They can make you really sick.
