So, somewhat ironically when I decided to dust off the slow cooker again I chose to make a mock beef red curry with some 'beef' chunks that I had bought at Minh Phat. This was yum. Even though I am not working at the moment & it is nice to have food prepared of an evening & not have to do to much besides cook some rice in the rice cooker (which Greg did anyway so all I had to do was serve).
My very simple & not very authentic curry recipe
- 2 tbsp red curry paste ( I bought mine from Aldi)
- Can light coconut milk
- Mock beef chunks
- Cauliflower florets
- Green beans topped & tailed
- Peeled potatoes cut into chunks
- Half a huge eggplant diced
- 1 onion sliced
Next time I make it I won't use cauliflower though because it went really mushy, all the other vegies came out beautifully though, especially the eggplant so I am now looking at other eggplant slow cooker recipes.
That looks amazing! I don't have a slow cooker, but I'm really getting into long-simmered curries since the weather has turned cooler.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to have the make a trip to Minh Phat soon - I do love me some fake meat!
That does look good, I really need to dig my slow cooker out, now that the weather is getting cooler.
ReplyDeletei love slow cookers! so so easy to make the most warming meal
ReplyDeleteOohhh yum. Tell me more about the fake beef chunks, what brand were they? Yummy?
ReplyDeleteNiki - I think the brand is Vege Giant, they are the brand that you get at Vincents in Footscray.
