Рецепт Slow Cooker Vegetable Curry Recipe with Sweet Potato & Chickpeas
This slow cooker vegetarian curry recipe stars sweet potato and chickpeas, and is a fantastic choice for a Meatless Monday meal.
“Are you making Grandma’s crockpot applesauce, Mum? Please tell me that you are!”
This is what I typically hear when I pull out the slow cooker. And who can blame them?! The applesauce isn’t a family favorite by chance.
But when I got my new slow cooker (this one from KitchenAid…4 heat settings, timer…the whole she-bang), I decided to put my crockpot-cooking self in gear.
Often I stick with some of our go-to favorites, such as Crockpot Chicken Tortilla Soup and Crockpot Chickpea Stew with Balsamic Caramelized Onions.
But we’re done with the whole “safety zone” thing. It’s time to put some miles on the new slow cooker and dive into unexplored territory…go where no slow cooker in our house has gone before.
My husband and kids adore my mum’s chicken curry. It’s always a full-on feast, complete with naan, mango chutney and cucumber raita.
This time, I used some of the same flavors, but simplified the process by tossing everything into the slow cooker after sauteeing some onions, ginger and garlic with mild curry paste (found in the Asian aisle of many supermarkets). Plus, this version is vegetarian, starring sweet potatoes, cauliflower and chickpeas, rather than chicken and regular potatoes, making it the perfect candidate for any Meatless Monday meal. It’s also happens to be vegan and gluten-free.
The recipe:
Heat the canola oil in a large nonstick skillet set over medium heat. Add the onion, apple and ginger, and cook until they are tender, 7 to 8 minutes.
Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in the curry paste and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Transfer the onion mixture to a slow cooker.
Add the sweet potato, cauliflower, chickpeas, diced tomatoes and vegetable broth to the slow cooker.
Cook on HIGH for 6 hours, or until the vegetables are tender.
Stir in the coconut milk and spinach, and heat. Serve.
