Add the diced carrots and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Pour in the diced tomatoes and vegetable broth, then add oregano, salt, and pepper.
Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes until the carrots are tender.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.

Tips for Savory Garlic Tomato and Carrot Stew

The stew is ready when carrot pieces are easily pierced and the broth looks slightly thickened; very large dice may need extra time.
A heavy-bottomed pot helps prevent the onion and garlic from catching as the stew cooks.
For a fuller meal, serve with crusty bread or spoon over cooked rice; add parsley just before serving for a fresh contrast.

Drink pairing

A dry rosé
Its crisp, light fruit complements the sweet carrots and tomatoes without overpowering the savory garlic and oregano.

Storage

Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours in a covered container and keep for 3–4 days. Reheat until steaming hot, adding a splash of broth or water if it has thickened.
