veggie curry for 12 in the slow cooker - recipe anyone please??

[mckenzie]

We have friends coming over tomorrow and I would rather like to do a curry in the slow cooker and as one of us is veggie I thought I'd do veggie for everyone and perhaps do some curried chicken fillets to supplement it for the meat eaters.

Does anyone have a good recipe that is fairly quick and easy and would work in the slow cooker please?

TIA

I've found that curry doesn't do well in the slow cooker. The taste doesn't seem to intestify at all and hte curry flavour doesn't come through. Maybe I'm doing it wrongly

OK I will give you my receipe, but you do need to fry off the ingrediaents first.

Onions - sliced (fry)
1/2 ts of tumeric
1/2 ts of chilli powder
1 or 2 chopped chillis
2 cloves of hgarlic - chopped
2.5 cms of ginger chopped
1 tsp of garam masala

Fry together add a tin of chopped tomato's and then what every veg you like really, green beans, cauli. Transfer to the slow cooker.

Before serving sprinkle a tsp of garam masala over the top and some chopped corriander

This is tasty rather than hot IFKWIM. You can always add more liquid if needed. I have this in the slow cooker tonight, but with chicken peices added - yum.

Naan dough is rising and the children will be in bed soon.

thanks for the recipe madhouse. so much the same as a hob made cury huh?
what about if i make a curry tonight, put it in the fridge over night and then heat in slow cooker tomorrow afternoon while we are out? would that still not taste so good wobblypig?

I used to have a m8 who swore by the curry club manual and he would start cooking the curry in the a.m, much to his DW chagrin!, he always left it to cool to 'enhance' the flavours. imho anything left to embrace the flavours will be better as a result, obv no green mould allowed and cold curry, can't sing enough praises for that.

thanks stubble. I wasn;t organised enough in the end and we made do with a takeaway and starter bits from M&S. It was stress free and delicious though so may well have been the best option
