Recipe Tips

  • You can skip all the frypan work and add everything straight into the slow cooker. Personally, I find that it does not work out nearly as well, but it is a good option if you are low on time.
  • The type of beef you use does not hugely matter. However, I do recommend using a cheaper cut of meat for the best result. The long cooking time will turn most tough meat tender.
  • You can easily replace the curry paste with a store-bought jar paste. The result will still be delicious.
  • I do not recommend mixing cold yogurt straight into the slow cooker as it is likely to split. Warming the yogurt will help reduce the chance of the yogurt splitting.
  • More vegetables can be added to the curry for more flavor. It is also perfect for feeding more people.
  • You can cook this dish faster by reducing the cooking time to three hours and switching the slow cooker to high.
