RFCJ RECIPE ARCHIVE
Posted by : Hadass Eviatar Vegetarian Crockpot Cholent #5 - pareve
Here is the cholent I've got simmering away on my kitchen counter right now: A couple of potatoes, peeled and thickly sliced A couple of sweet potatoes, ditto A couple of parsnips, ditto A couple of carrots, ditto 1 large onion, ditto A couple of cloves of garlic, ditto A few mushrooms, cleaned and sliced A couple of handfuls of dried chickpeas A couple of handfuls of barley A few frozen veggie dogs, cut in pieces A sauce of some kind (this week I used Hunt's Italian tomato sauce, but just about any kind will do - I've even used honey mustard!). Fill up with water to cover everything, and let cook on low from Thursday evening. I check things and add some more water Friday morning. Since Shabbat comes in very early this time of year, we have the cholent for Friday night dinner. Earlier in the year I would set it up Friday morning and have it for Saturday night dinner. You can use any kind of dried bean, and the veggies vary according to what I have in my fridge. This is a very forgiving recipe. I used to add frozen peas and corn, but haven't recently.
