Slow-Cooker Beef Curry Recipe | Easy & Flavorful
-
Sear the beef (optional but recommended): In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Brown the beef in batches to lock in flavor. Transfer to the slow cooker.
-
Sauté aromatics: In the same pan, sauté onions, garlic, and ginger until soft and fragrant (about 3-4 minutes). Add spices and toast for 1 minute to enhance flavor.
-
Combine in slow cooker: Add the sautéed mixture to the slow cooker along with diced sweet potato, carrot, bell pepper, tomato paste, coconut milk, and broth. Stir well to combine.
-
Slow cook: Cover and cook on low for 7–8 hours or high for 4–5 hours, until beef is fork-tender.
-
Final touches: 30 minutes before serving, stir in frozen peas and lime juice. Adjust seasoning if needed.
Serve: Garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve with brown rice or cauliflower rice for a lower-carb option.
Notes
Substitutions: Use chicken instead of beef for a lighter option. Chickpeas make a great vegetarian substitute.
