4 Tblsp flour
2 tsp each ground coriander and cumin
1 tsp tumeric
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper or chilli powder
1/2 tsp salt

1 tin coconut cream (I use light to make me feel better!)
1/2 cup chopped cashew nuts (optional)
Place meat, onion. apple and carrot in crockpot - stir. Combine flour, brown sugar and spices and seasoning together then stir into crockpot. Pour in coconut cream and stir well. Put lid on and cook on low for 5 - 7 hours depending on meat used. 30 mins before serving turn on to high until sauce has thickened slightly. Sprinkle with nuts and serve on rice.

yum,I would have to use gluten free flour,but would it be ok to leave out the sugar,sounds lovely.

geldof, May 17, 1:59am
Earthangel, the apple will add some sweetness.
I don't know if you are allowed banana,but I love to slice it and sprinkle with lemon juice to stop it going brown, then toss in coconut.Lovely with a curry.

Have you thought about using coconut sugar!

Would maize cornflour be a gluten free option! The curry could be thickened in the last 1/2 hourmaybe!

lisamarie3, Aug 13, 7:19pm
Does any one have a recipe for beef curry that only uses packet stuff

nauru, Aug 13, 7:23pm
I use potato starch to thicken in CP, are you allowed to use that!It thickens immediately and no need to cook it out like you have to with flour and cornflour.

nauru, Aug 13, 7:25pm
What do you mean packet stuff,ie: curry powder or a packet curry sauce mix!

lisamarie3, Aug 13, 7:27pm
Sorry I mean curry packets that kind have everything in them - when your a busy working mum you dont have much time to mix everything up :)

nauru, Aug 14, 6:03am
Lisamarie3 - Maggi do cook in the pot ones for curry, I think.I have used the Stroganoff ones in the past in my CP and they were always OK so guess the curry ones would work too, just don't add as much liquid as the pkt says.

Funny I should see this thread. I have just this minute finished sending my one off to my daughter in law. Its one of the best crock pot curries I have tasted.

Beef Curry in the Crock Pot

Serves 4

1kg diced beef
2 tsp oil
4 onions
2 tsp crushed garlic
1 tsp crushed ginger (optional)
½ cup grated pumpkin (optional)
3tsp ground coriander
3 tsp ground cumin
3 tsp turmeric
3 tsp garum masala
1 tsp ground chilli
1 tsp salt
½ - 1 tsp ground black peppers
2 cans Watties Indian Tomatoes
¼ can coconut cream (optional)

Finely dice onions and along with the pumpkin, garlic and ginger, stir fry using 1 tsp of oil, on high heat until they are transparent and starting to brown.

Add all the spices to the pan and continue to stir fry the mixture for a few mintes (hot frying the spices with the onions releases the flavours better) Put onion mixture into the crock pot.

Return the fry pan to the heat, add the remaining oil and stir fry the beef in a couple of batches, cooking until slightly browned on all sides. Add to the crockpot.

Stir into the crockpot, the canned tomatoes and coconut cream if using. ( I never add any other liquids to this recipe)

Cook on low for at least 8 hours.

Note, adding the pumpkin boosts the vege content, bulks it up a little and seems to add a nice consistency

I only add the coconut cream in I have it, usually I have some in the freezer left over from other dishes.

ETA I mix my own curry powder using those 5 spices.

I tried this recipe on Sunday bopeep80! First time I have ever done a curry - turned out fantastic!Thank you.

raewyn64, Aug 19, 10:20pm
me too - but I reduced the spices a little in quantity and it came out just right for us - having the remainder tonight with rice.
