Slow Cooker Potatoes and Carrots in Coconut Curry image

This is a typical southern Indian dish where coconut cream (or coconut milk) is a common ingredient. This dish can be served hot, warm or at room temperature like a traditional potato salad. Recipe is from my Gourmet Vegetarian slow Cooker Cookbook.

Time 5h30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 lb red potatoes
1 c water
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
2 Tbsp cumin seeds
2 tsp fennel seeds
1 lb carrots, sliced into rounds
2 Tbsp curry powder
1 can(s) 14-oz. can coconut cream (or coconut milk)
salt to taste
4 serrano chilies, seeded, deveined and cut into julienne for garnish (or jalapenos if you want less heat)
1/4 c fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Wash the potatoes thoroughly, then place into the slow cooker insert and add the water. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours, or until the potatoes are fairly tender (cooking time will depend upon the size and type of potato you use). Tiny red potatoes, for instance, will generally cook in less than 4 hours, so use a fork to determine doneness. If your potatoes are fairly large, you may wish to cut them into quarters.
  • 2. In a saute pan, heat the oil and saute the onion over medium-high heat until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin seeds, and fennel seeds and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes. Add the onion, carrots and curry powder to the potatoes and carefully stir in the coconut cream. Re-cover and continue cooking for 1 hour.
  • 3. Add salt to taste, then spoon the curry into a bowl or onto plates and garnish with the chile slices and cilantro.

This recipe is a great base for a variety of different dishes. I've used it to make a curry soup, a curry stir-fry, and a curry casserole. It's always delicious!

I'm allergic to coconut, so I used a dairy-free milk alternative instead. It turned out great! I also added some chopped nuts for a bit of crunch.

I made this recipe in my Instant Pot, and it turned out great! I cooked it on high pressure for 15 minutes, and then I let it natural release for 10 minutes. The potatoes and carrots were perfectly tender, and the curry sauce was rich and flavorful.

I'm a vegetarian, so I omitted the chicken from this recipe. It was still delicious! I added some extra vegetables, like broccoli and cauliflower, and it was a complete meal.

This recipe is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids loved the sweet and creamy curry sauce, and they ate all of their potatoes and carrots.

I loved the addition of the cilantro and lime juice, but I would have liked the sauce to be a bit thicker. Next time, I'll add a cornstarch slurry to the sauce before serving.

I found that the potatoes and carrots took a little longer to cook than the recipe stated. I had to cook them on low for about 8 hours before they were tender.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a green curry paste. Next time, I'll use a red curry paste or a milder curry powder.

I'm not usually a fan of coconut curry, but this recipe changed my mind. The curry sauce is so mild and creamy, and it's the perfect complement to the tender potatoes and carrots. I will definitely be making this again!

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover potatoes and carrots. I had some leftover roasted potatoes and carrots from a previous meal, and I threw them in the slow cooker with some coconut milk, curry paste, and vegetable broth. It was a quick an

I love how versatile this recipe is. I didn't have any coconut milk on hand, so I used almond milk instead, and it turned out great. I also added some chopped spinach and chickpeas to the pot, and it was a delicious and healthy meal. Thanks for shari
