Directions

Prepare the Parve Cholent

  1. Sauté onions in water (see note). Add garlic and sauté for a few more minutes.

  2. Add the beans, rice/other grain, and potatoes/sweet potatoes.

  3. Add spices like you do to your regular cholent: salt or salt substitute, paprika, black pepper, smoked paprika to give it a little kick.

  4. Add water to cover plus a little bit more.

  5. Cook in an instant pot (15 minutes on Pressure cook) or slow cooker.

Tips:

Chop lots of onions into small pieces with a little water onto the bottom and add them to a slow cooker lined with Gefen Parchment Paper on low overnight. Wake up to browned sautéed onions ready to throw in any recipe that calls for them. 1 large onion = 1 cup sautéed.

Notes:

It’s always best to soak beans 24-48 hours before use. Rinse, drain and replace with fresh water every 12 hours to decrease gas and bloating.

This recipe looks great! If I choose to make in my slow cooker, how long should I let it cook so rice doesn’t dry out?

You'd cook it with the rice, same as normal cholent. Crockpot and preferences vary...for a meatless cholent we suggest cooking it on low overnight.
