Heat the oil in a large saucepan and gently fry the onion in the oil for 4 to 5 minutes or until soft. Add the garlic, chile, peppers and mushrooms and cook for five minutes. Cover and cook the mixture for 15-20 minutes over a very gentle heat.

Add the cooked beans, potato, paprika, thyme, tomato puree and miso to the stew.

Simmer gently for 30 minutes, adding a little bean liquid if necessary. Season with salt and pepper and serve hot with rice or noodles. Serves four.
