We usually make a tomato based curry. Our friend, Kristi Sellers, gave us this recipe in 2009 after introducing us to a different type of curry. This is different, but just as good as the curries we are used to.
The recipe originated from a Ywam missionary friend from Thailand.
The first time I remember ever having these was for our wedding rehearsal dinner. We have enjoyed them often over the years.
I asked Mark what he wanted for dinner when he was home for Spring break. He really wanted a good stew. He gets it at school, but it is often salty and served with noodles.
Stew is a very flexible meal. Add more or less vegetables or add other favorites. Serve with a lettuce salad and maybe some bread, and you have an easy meal.
If you have frozen stew meat, you can still cook it in the crock pot. Skip browning the meat. Start cooking the stew on high in the morning and cook for 8 hours. We prefer to cook the frozen meat for 3 or 4 hours with pepper, garlic and onions, then add the remaining vegetables and spices for the last few hours of cooking.
Simple, but very good!
While any asparagus works, the thinner, less woody stalks taste the best.
We enjoy curry in many ways. Allan came up with this simple recipe.
Curry with bones, the way Allan prefers, thickens the sauce better and has more pronounced flavor. I prefer not to have to dig out bones while eating, so make it how ever you prefer.
To stretch the curry more, use more onions and tomatoes and adjust spices. You can also add diced potatoes and peas if desired.
