Instructions

  • Prepare rice: Wash and drain the rice. Add the rice to the bag, fill up with 2 cups of water and add the spices. When sealing the bag, make sure to leave some room since the rice will be cooking for 24 hours. 
  • Prepare wheat berries: Follow the same process as for the rice in a different cooking bag.
  •  In the crockpot, place the chickpeas on the bottom then arrange the potatoes on top. Add the meat and the eggs. Cover with water and add all the other ingredients. With a big spatula or by hand, mix everything very well.
  • Recommended cooking time: Mid-day Friday, turn the crockpot onto the " high" setting. Right before Shabbat begins lower it to "medium/low."
