Crockpot Thai Red Curry



Ingredients:
Sauce:
1 can coconut milk
1 T. Red curry paste
1 t. tamari or soy sauce
1 t. garlic
1 t. fish sauce
1 t. palm sugar, honey, or brown sugar

1 lb. raw chicken or pork, sliced into thin strips

A mix of your desired veggies:

“Slow” cooking veggies, such as:
Peppers
Onions
Eggplant
Cabbage
sweet potatoes
Hot chili peppers

“Fast” cooking veggies, such as:
Mushrooms
Snap peas
Asparagus
Fresh basil (I’d recommend this!)

Mix sauce in small bowl and add to the crockpot base. Add meat and “slow cooking” veggies, toss to coat, and layer “quick cooking” veggies over that. Cover and allow to marinate overnight, then, in the morning, set to low and cook 7-9 hours while you get on with your life.

Indian Butter Chicken

Ingredients
2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs ( mine were frozen solid)
1 onions, sliced
6 garlic cloves, chopped
4 tablespoons butter
15 cardamom pods ( sewn together to find easily!)
2 teaspoons curry
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons garam masala
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 (260 ml) cans coconut milk ( I used light)
1 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup plain yogurt ( to add at the end)

Directions
Use a 5 quart (20 cups) or larger crockpot. Carefully sew together the cardamom pods using a needle and thread. You can put them in a little cheese cloth bundle, instead, if you have that in the house. Put chicken in crockpot, and add onion, garlic, and all of the dry spices. Plop in the butter and tomato paste. Add lemon juice and coconut milk. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or high for 4. The chicken should shred easily with 2 forks when fully cooked.
Stir in plain yogurt 15 minutes before serving. Discard cardamom pods. Salt to taste, serve with white or brown basmati rice.

Pumpkin Pie Pudding

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 7 hours

Total Time: 7 hours, 15 minutes

Ingredients:

15 oz. can solid pack pumpkin
12 oz. can evaporated milk
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 eggs, beaten
2 Tbsp. butter, melted
2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
1 pie crust (not placed in pie pan)
2 Tbsp. sugar
Preparation:

In a large bowl place pumpkin and beat with spoon to soften. Gradually add 1/4 cup of the evaporated milk, stirring until well blended with the pumpkin. Then add remaining evaporated milk and the rest of the ingredients except for pie crust and 2 tablespoons sugar and beat until blended.
Transfer to a 3-quart crockpot coated with nonstick cooking spray. Cover crockpot and cook on LOW for 5-7 hours, until pudding is set when lightly touched with finger.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Unfold refrigerated pie crust (or make your own crust) and let stand at room temperature for 20 minutes. Gently roll out crust on lightly floured surface until slightly thinner. Using cookie cutter (try turkeys, leaves, pumpkins!) cut out small cutouts. Place on ungreased cookie sheet and sprinkle with sugar.

Bake crust cutouts at 375 degrees F for 8-9 minutes, until cutouts are light golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet and cool on wire rack. Serve pudding warm or cool, garnished with a pie crust cutout to 'fake' pumpkin pie! Or you can crumble up purchased sugar cookies or shortbread and sprinkle those on top of the pudding, so each bite tastes just like real pumpkin pie. Oh, and whipped cream is necessary too. Serves 8

Note: The time for cooking this pudding will vary with the size of your crockpot. If the crockpot is filled less than half full, cook on low for 3-4 hours. If it's filled between one-half and two-thirds, cook on low for 5-7 hours. The temperature of the pudding should be 170 to 175 degrees F. Let cool for at least one hour before serving. Refrigerate leftovers.

White Chocolate Bread Pudding

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Cook Time: 1 hour, 45 minutes

Total Time: 1 hour, 65 minutes

Ingredients:

1/2 cup dried cherries or cranberries
3 Tbsp. brandy or bourbon or apple cider
3 oz. bar white chocolate
2 Tbsp. butter
6 cups stale French bread cubes
4 eggs
1/3 cup sugar
1 cup half and half
1 tsp. vanilla
Preparation:

Look over the cherries to make sure all the pits are removed. Combine dried fruit with brandy (or apple cider) in a small bowl and microwave on high power for 30 seconds. Remove and let stand for 30 minutes to cool. Coarsely chop the white chocolate. Drain the dried fruit.
Generously butter the crockery insert of a 3 1/2 quart slow cooker. Cover the bottom with half of the bread cubes; then scatter with half of the drained cherries and chopped chocolate. Layer on the remaining bread cubes and top with the rest of the cherries and chocolate.

In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar until smooth; then whisk in the half-and-half and vanilla until blended. Carefully pour over the bread mixture, gently pressing down on bread to cover with the egg mixture. Cover crockpot and cook on high for 1 3/4 hours, without lifting lid, until set and puffed. Serve warm or at room temperature. Makes 6 servings.
