Slow Cooker or Crockpot Asian Chicken Curry

It seems that I make curry all the time because I love curry. Today, I will share an easy curry recipe using a crockpot or slow cooker. I use a slow cooker that I just bought at Costco. I use a combination of curry spices from the way Indian people make their curry. However, this is much easier to create. Enjoy.

Ingredients:
5 chicken drumsticks, skin removed first and then cut up
1 medium onion, chopped
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
1 red bell pepper chopped
1 carrot, sliced
1 cup daikon
2 tbs peanut oil
1 cup coconut milk
1/2 lb. potatoes, peeled and cut up
Salt, sugar, and black pepper to taste
Curry spices:
1 tsp turmeric
1/2 tsp curry powder
Equal 1/4 tsp quantities of cumin. coriander powder, cloves, and chili flakes
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp fresh ginger, minced
Other ingredients:
Chopped green onions and cilantro for garnish

Directions:
Combine the curry spices and set aside.
Heat oil in a deep sauté pan. Add onions and curry spices and stir to cook for 30 seconds.

 Add chicken and brown the chicken with curry spices for 5 minutes.

Add chopped tomatoes. Season with salt, sugar, and black pepper.

Continue to cook for another 2 minutes and pour into a slow cooker.

Add carrot, daikon, red bell pepper, and coconut milk. Close the lid and follow the directions to cook. I use 3 hours for my curry. You might need more time.

While the curry is cooking, bake the potatoes until almost done.

About 1 hour before the cooking time is done, add baked potatoes. Adjust the seasoning at this time again, Close the lid and let it cook until the chicken and all the vegetables are tender.

Sprinkle the chopped green onions and cilantro on top before serving. Serve with bread, rice, or noodles.
