Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken Curry
This slow cooker creamy chicken curry sounds like it’s going to be a fat-fest – but that’s not the case at all. Thick, Greek style natural yoghurt is added rather than cream, butter or ghee.
All you do is prep the ingredients, throw them in, stir and set to simmer for about 5-6 hours on low. Job done, until you add the yoghurt and some coriander and mix in to heat through before serving.
With fresh garlic and ginger plus onion, pepper, mushrooms, tomatoes, chicken and yoghurt it’s pretty healthy, yet far from bland thanks to the spices and fresh herbs.
As it’s pretty mild, this easy slow cooker chicken curry without coconut milk is good for kids too. It’s not quite a slow cooker chicken korma, though, as there’s no coconut. And a whole lot more veg.
