Bored of lunch slow cooker beef curry

How about this Top of the bestseller charts for the past few weeks has been the cookbook Bored of Lunch: The Healthy Slow Cooker Bookwritten by social media sensation, Nathan Anthony.

Hi, Making this for dinner tonight and some for the freezer. I copied the recipe from the Bored of Lunch Facebook page. This recipe serves 4. Looks perfectly fine to double that up. A few recipes are very sensitive, akin to a chemical reaction where changing quantities, time or temperature can have serious consequences. This is definitely not one of them. Just make sure you adjust seasoning to taste once it's almost done.

One of the most time-efficient, cost-effective and healthy ways to cook is in a slow cooker — fast becoming a kitchen must-have. Low on energy consumption and easy to use, this super simple appliance is a great way to make sure that there will be a warming, nutritious and cost-effective meal waiting for you and the family at the end of the day. An expert in the art of slow cooking, Nathan has three 1 bestselling books, two of which are slow cooker-based. The latest book, Even Easier , focuses on five-minute prep recipes that are all calories or under and made in a slow cooker. When adding liquid, such as stock, to your slow cooker to create a sauce, always add less than you think. If you add too much at the beginning it will be hard to thicken your sauce. Remember, you can always add more later if you need it. When your meal is finished cooking, remove the dish from the slow cooker and portion it onto your plates or into lunchboxes as soon as you can. To be ultra-energy efficient and save even more money, turn the slow cooker off for the last 20 minutes of the cooking time. The pot will retain enough heat to continue cooking for anywhere up to 45 minutes after it has been switched off, so for example if a recipe says to cook a dish for 4 hours, turn it off after 3 hours and 40 minutes. Slow cookers are perfect for making curries and stews — the long cooking time allows the flavours to deepen and develop. My top tip for these dishes is to leave out any vegetables until the last minutes of the cooking time. Adding vegetables from the start can lead to them being mushy or too soft, so leaving them out until later helps retain a slight crunch and adds a gorgeous texture to the dish. The only exception to this rule is harder vegetables like carrots, onions and potatoes, which can be added from the start.

This super simple slow cooker curry from Nathan Anthony, aka Bored of Lunch, is packed with aromatic Thai flavours. I adore this recipe, which was inspired by the local Thai takeaway we had growing up. The smell alone transports me back to my childhood so it holds such sentimental value. The flavour here is sensational, like a very rich satay. Place all the ingredients in the slow cooker, stir and season to taste. If you would like the sauce to be thicker, stir in another teaspoon of cornflour mixed to a paste with a little water.

Slow cooked chunks of tender beef in a rich and spicy sauce served over a bed of rice. This Slow Cooker Beef Curry is an easy and comforting meal with a kick of spice. It's made with spices you probably already have in your cupboard and it freezes really well too, so you can have leftovers for meals in the week. You can make this as spicy or as mild as you like too. In my opinion, the best way to cook beef is to slow cook it.
