Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds carrots
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 2 cloves garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon ginger
- 2 teaspoons curry powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.25 cup cilantro (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel the carrots and slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Set aside.
Dice the yellow onion and mince the garlic cloves. Grate or finely mince the ginger.
In a small skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Stir in the curry powder, ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and pepper. Cook for 30 seconds to toast the spices. Remove from heat.
In the crock pot, combine the sliced carrots, the sautéed onion and spice mixture, and the coconut milk. Stir well to coat the carrots evenly with the sauce.
Cover and cook on low heat for 4-5 hours, or until the carrots are tender but not falling apart.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. You can add more salt or a sprinkle of curry powder if desired.
Serve warm, garnished with chopped cilantro if preferred.
