Thai Twist Slow Cooker Vegetarian Split Pea Soup image

Some days you just need a slow cooker meal...! Love soups and was looking for something a little different. If you have an open jar or packet of thai curry paste in your fridge, and you like the flavour of it, this is another way to enjoy it. Most of the items are pantry staples, which is how this came to be, and it's fairly low calorie/low fat. I made it to fit a small crock pot (2.5 Q I think)....yields enough for 2 good sized portions. If you use a larger crock pot you would probably have to double the recipe. Some flat bread on the side makes it a meal.

Time 4h15m

Yield 3 1/2 cups, 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 onion, diced
1 stalk celery, diced
1 carrot, diced
1/2 cup split peas, green, dried
1/4 cup pearl barley
1/4 cup red lentil, dried
2 teaspoons Braggs liquid aminos
1 teaspoon garlic, minced, use fresh or garlic powder, it won't matter much
2 teaspoons Thai curry paste
2 cups vegetable stock, or use 1 bouillon cube or equivelant stock powder
1 cup water
1 teaspoon vinegar
1 teaspoon dried fenugreek leaves
1 bay leaf
2 fresh lime leaves, dried
1/4 cup light coconut milk

Steps:

  • Add the items to your slow cooker and stir.
  • In the small cooker it only took 4 hours on high, which could easily be stretched out to 8 hours on low. Keep an eye on the water content -- it may need more water or broth added depending on your cooker.
