Slow cooker beef curry
2 lb lean diced beef
2 large onions (sliced)
1/2 tsp chili flakes (or fresh chopped chili if you prefer)
1 can chopped tomatoes
2 tbsp tomato puree
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp ground coriander
2 tsp turmeric
3 cloves garlic (crushed)
thumb sized piece of fresh ginger (grated )
(or I use frozen garlic and ginger paste )
1/2 pt beef stock (from a cube is fine)
salt to taste
Put everything in the slow cooker stir well and cook on low for 6-8 hours . When you get home take off the lid and turn it up to high for the last hour so the sauce can thicken and reduce . Taste for seasoning in case it needs a little salt.

Can you add fat free natural yoghurt to this to help thicken
ReplyDeleteyou definitely could
DeleteWould you add the yoghurt when you remove the lid for the last hour?
DeleteProbably right at the end would be best in the last five minutes. I don't find it's needed and just leaving the lid off the last hour thickens it enough but if you want to please do add it but at the end so it doesn't curdle the sauce.
ReplyDeleteHow many does this serve ?

DeleteHave you made this with other meats? X
