SO HOW'D IT GO?
This was pretty good. I think next time I will either parboil the potatoes and carrots to cut down on cooking time, or do it all in the slow cooker over a few hours to get it more into a stew type of meal, and also add less crushed tomato, and add a cup or so of veggie broth. I served it over red and white quinoa.
These were yummy. I left out most of the spices since I didn't have them, but I added curry powder, a bay leaf, paprika, and garam masala. A big hit with my friends, and me!
I'm eating this right now, it is wonderful! The only thing I did wrong was not start cooking the chickpeas until after 8 pm, so I'm eating at 11:30. I used a lot of fresh ginger (maybe 2 Tbs chopped) and cooked the curry powder and onions in some olive oil prior to adding. I also used fresh tomatoes. After I transfered the onions and curry to the main pot, I sliced some zucchini into the frying pan, added water and a clove of garlic, and cooked. Curried zucchini!
MMMMMMmmmmmm!!!! I am making this right now and the smell is HEAVENLY. I did change some things though: i used 1tsp curry powder, 2tsp (ish) garam masala, 2tbsp Patak's Extra Spicy Curry Paste, dash of cinnamon, dash of cardamom, a bay leaf, peas instead of carrots (out of carrots, sauted onions first with 1tsp (ish) of tumeric and tiny pit of oil before I put everything else in. Now all I've got to do is wait for the potatoes to soften and I'll be able to enjoy a wonderful curry on this snowy Southern Ontario night :) Thanks so much for the recipe!!
YUM! This was a nice meal for a cold day! I used 1 tbsp curry and added some minced ginger, served on basmati rice. I think I would add a few more veggies next time but overall a very nice meal! Thanks for sharing! :)
This was really good, even though I made some additions. I made it tonight and first cooked some garlic, ginger, shallots (didn't have scallions), cumin seeds, curry, and coriander in a little canola oil. Then I added the tomatoes, cayenne pepper, salt, nutmeg, bouillion, garlic powder and ginger powder. Then I stirred in the rest of the ingredients with about a half can of water. I put a lid on it and simmered until the potatoes and carrots were soft. Then I took the lid off and added some frozen peas, allowing the water to evaporate a little. It was delicious this way! :)
This was very good, instead of using all curry, I put in garam masala too, it was very tasty. I left out the carrots (becaue I didn't have any) and it tasted fine.
