Vegetable Curry

1) the really pointy sweet chili peppers are really great here 2) I show it sequential but you're going to want to cook as many things at once as possible.

Ingredients
| 6 | multicolored bell peppers |
| 2 | carrots |

| 1 lb | mushrooms |
| 1 tbl | butter |
| 250ml | cream |
| 1 medium | red onion |
| 4 cloves | garlic |
| ½ c | chicken stock (or Oxo) |
| 5 pods | cardomom |

| Air Fryer | |
| big pot |
Steps
- Cut multicolored bell peppers into 1½" chunks and put in the Air Fryer for 6 minutes - should still be crunchy. Dump into the big pot.
- Peel carrots, cut in half lengthwise, cut into 1½" chunks. Microwave or cook any other way until soft but not mushy. Dump into the pot.
- Start rice or pasta - start the rice or start heating the water for the pasta.
- Wash the mushrooms and cut into halves or thirds (roughly the size of the carrot chunks) and put in the air fryer with the butter for about 10 minutes - until they are starting to brown. Dump into the pot.
- Add cream to the pot. Turn its heat on low.
- Peel & cut up the red onion into eighths and put in the Air Fryer for 12 minutes. Set another timer for 8 minutes.
- Start cooking the pasta.
- Peel & slice the garlic and add to the air fryer at the alarm so the onion gets 12 minutes, garlic gets 4.
- Rinse out air fryer with chicken stock (or Oxo) and pour into pot.
- Grind up cardomom and add it, cumin, the chili pepper flakes, maple syrup, and curry powder to the pot.
- Add hot sauce - 1 tbl for mild, 2 or 3 for medium, hot and gently stir.
- Cut up bok choy or bottom of romaine and add it and the spinach to the pot.
- Cut up bamboo shoot root into chunks if they're not already cut (it was cut to what looks like spaghetti in this pic)
- Heat through until it *just* boils, stirring occasionally.
