Description

When the weather gets cold, we dig into the back of our closets to pull out a kitchen gadget that takes a “hibernation” during the summer – the slow cooker. And while soups and stews might be the backbone of what slow cookers excel at making, we recently used ours to make this creamy, vegetarian (and easily vegan) Indian-spiced butternut squash and red lentil curry. Known for its layers of flavor, Indian cuisine is often misunderstood for being too difficult and time consuming to be worth trying at home. This recipe proves that to be completely wrong. By starting the base of the lentil curry (or dal) on the stove with caramelized onions, garlic, ginger, and a handful of spices, you create a flavor-packed foundation that mellows and melds together after an all day simmering in the crock pot. Butternut squash melts away into the curry, giving the dish a subtle sweetness throughout. Serve it on top of white rice with a dollop of yogurt, alongside a stack of your favorite Indian flatbreads, or just as it is like a stew.
