No Hurry Vegetable Curry
1 TBS peanut oil
2 large carrots, sliced
1 medium size yellow onion, chopped (I always use a little more)
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 TBS curry powder
1 tsp ground coriander
¼ tsp cayenne pepper
2 large Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and diced (I usually don't peel mine)
8 ounces green beans, ends trimmed and cut into 1 inch pieces (sometimes I use frozen green beans)
1 ½ cups slow cooked or one 15.5 ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed One 14.5 ounce can diced tomatoes, drained
2 cups vegetable stock
½ cup frozen green peas, thawed (I never have these…I always forget)
½ cup canned unsweetened coconut milk (optional—but man does it make it
tasty!)
1. Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add carrots
and onion, cover and cook until softened. (around 5 minutes?) Add the garlic, curry powder, coriander and cayenne, stirring to coat.
2. Transfer the vegetable mixture to a 3 1/2 -4 quart slow cooker.
(mine is at least 5 quarts) Add the potatoes, green beans, chickpeas, tomatoes and stock; cover and cook on Low for 6-8 hours.
3. Just before serving, stir in the peas and coconut milk and season
with salt. Taste to adjust the seasonings.
Personally I would put more curry in it, but the kids liked it the way it was. It definitely needed the salt and I would maybe add red pepper flakes (not for my kids though). This was absolutely delicious served over long grain brown rice.
