So I've been lazy lately. I was out of town two weeks ago and last week I had a lot of catching up to do around the house, so I'm long overdo for a recipe. I promise I'll make something this week, but in the meantime, I wanted to post this AMAZING recipe I received from my lovely colleague, Katie Boswell. She prepared this delicious meal a couple weeks ago and my mouth has been watering since.

Prep time is about 20 minutes and cook time is about approximately 4 hours.
This recipe was inspired by a curry dish my mother made that I felt could be adapted to a slow cooker. Be prepared, it does have an authentic Indian heat to it!" - Katie Boswell
You can put pretty much use any vegetable in a curry dish but I felt the heartier ones would hold up better in the slow cooker, Don’t be scared to add your fave veggies to this dish. Butternut squash, eggplant, etc would all be nice additions.
Ingredients:
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 1 sweet onion chopped chopped/slice/diced to the size you prefer
- 3 russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 inch cubes
- 1/4 cup of Curry powder
- 2 tbs of flour ( I recommend Wondra flour)
- 1 tbs chili powder
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1/2 tsp Cayenne pepper
- 2 or 3 large bell peppers, color of your choosing
- 1/2 head of Cauliflower pulled apart
- 1 cup of chickpeas
- 1 14 oz can coconut milk, unsweetened
- 1 ½ cup carrots cut into matchstick size
- ½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 4 oz sliced mushrooms (I use a blend of baby bella, shitake and oyster but any ones will do)
Directions
- Place potatoes , onion and garlic in the bottom of your slow cooker
- Combine curry powder, flour, chili powder, red pepper flakes, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl. Sprinkle spices over the potato mixture and coat evenly
- Add bell peppers, cauliflower, chick peas, coconut milk, and stir to combine
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on Low until the mixture is bubbling, add some water or additional coconut milk if it looks dry and allow to cook on low for about 3 hours or until the potatoes are tender and can easily be cut in half with a fork
- Add carrots, mushrooms and cilantro and cook until the carrots are tender, about 30 minutes
