Beef Curry Slow Cooker Recipe

Steps

1. Heat a large, high-sided skillet (or a wide-bottomed pot), over medium high heat.

2. Salt and pepper the beef chunks.

3. Add about a tablespoon of oil to the pan and swirl. It should start to shimmer if the pan is hot enough.

4. Add 1/3 of the seasoned meat to the pan. Place the pieces of meat so that they are not touching each other (You don't want them to steam--see photos). Turn the pieces with tongs to brown all sides. Remove the beef to the slow cooker and repeat 2 more batches, adding more oil as necessary.

5. Once all of the beef is browned and in the slow cooker, turn the heat on the pan down to medium. Add the water, tomato sauce, garlic powder, salt, beef bouillon, black pepper, curry powder, and garam masala.

6. Stir with a wooden spoon until the mixture is bubbly and the bouillon has dissolved. It should thicken up a bit.

7. Pour the mixture over the beef in the slow cooker.

8. Add the chopped onion and stir it all together. Cook on low heat for 6-7 hours, until the beef is fork tender

9. Garnish with chopped cilantro and hot rice!

10. I love to serve this curry with lots of cilantro, Coconut Jasmine Rice and Homemade Naan! It's the best combo! You could even throw in a Strawberry Lassi to sip with it, if you wanted to get really fancy!
