Although we frequent a couple of Indian restaurants, I am only in the experimental stages of cooking dishes from India.

A simple slow cooker stew made with pork shoulder, potatoes, onions, and cabbage.

As the year closes, I find myself going deep into the quiet of the year, resting more, sleeping more, reading books, writing, reflecting, baking, and listening to music.

Adapted from Cooking LightHearty slow-cooking stew; freezes well & reheats beautifully.
