Sure! - but it's not a crockpot recipe. It is, however, vegan ;=)

 

This recipe is slightly adapted from Madhur Jaffrey's _World Vegetarian_.

When beets are young and tender, and even when they're getting on a bit, we

eat it a lot. You can adjust the number and heat of the chilies used -

obviously.

 

BEETROOT AND MUSHROOM CURRY - INDIA

 

3 Tbsp oil

1 tsp cumin seeds

1 tsp brown mustard seeds

225 g (1/2 lb) mushrooms, halved lengthways

450 g (1 lb) beetroot - peeled and cut in 2 cm (3/4 in) dice

1-1/2 Tbsp grated ginger root

2-3 crushed garlic cloves, finelly chopped

2 fresh thai green chilies

1/2 pint (1 cup) canned tomato sauce/puree

salt to taste

 

Set the pan over medium heat, pour in oil, and when hot add the seeds. When

mustard seeds pop add mushrooms, stir, and add beets, stir and cook for a

couple of minutes. Add ginger, garlic and chilies, stir and cook for another

couple of minutes. Add Tomato puree, 1 cup (half pint) water and around 1/2

tsp salt. Stir and when mixture comes to a boil, cover the pan and lower the

heat to simmer for about 45 minutes or until the beets are done.

 

Best, Pat ;=)
