Ingredients
- 1 sweet potato cut into 1" pieces, medium to large
- 1 onion diced, small
- 1 (14 ounce) can chickpeas drained
- 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juices
- 1/2 cup red lentils
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons curry powder
- 1/2 tablespoon cumin ground
- 1 tablespoon garam masala
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
For serving:
- cilantro chopped, optional
- naan bread optional
Instructions
- Prepare your sweet potato (I didn't peel it, but feel free to - there's lots of nutrients in the skin) and onion.
- Add all ingredients to your slow cooker (you may want to go easy on salt & pepper until after it's cooked, then season to taste). Give it a good stir then cook on low for 6-8 hours. The photos pictured show what it looks like after 5-6 hours of cooking. The full 8 hours makes it more of a thicker stew consistency because the sweet potatoes release more of their starch.
- Serve with freshly chopped cilantro and naan bread (optional). Makes great leftovers!
Notes
- I haven't tried cooking it on high, but I would give it 3-4 hours.
- This is the 7-quart Crockpot that I use.
- I live in Canada and sometimes use a larger 19 oz. can of chickpeas (they are commonly found here in that size). You can feel free to add more than the 14 oz if you like. This curry is very flexible.
- Stove top cooking tips: Sauté the onion in a large pot in about a tablespoon of olive oil until it’s lightly browned. Add the remaining ingredients, bring it to a boil, and then reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer with the lid slightly ajar. Test the tenderness of the veggies after about 30-45 minutes. You may need to cook it longer. Cooking time will vary depending on size of pot and other factors. Adjust seasonings to taste before serving.
