For the crock pot version of this, I'm kind of confused. It says from step 9, you may use a crock pot, so does that mean that do everything from steps 1-9 as stated but then just throw everything into a crockpot and allow it took for 6-8 hours, afterwards?

Can a crockpot be used for Nani Maya's lamb curry?

Yes to your question about Lamb curry Achari. I have clarified it a bit more, I think!

Yes you can, after step 12.

The (not so} secret with the Lamb recipes is to make sure you have an overnight marinade in the fridge

A crock pot or slow cooker in this context is not simply an earthenware pot, but an electric cooking appliance in which a large ceramic/ earthenware pot (with a close fitting lid) sits inside an electric outer pot which applies a low level of heat evenly for a long period.

It's used to cook things slowly (hence the more common name in the UK) and is quite economical in terms of electricity use. Unlike oven and stove top, it's also considered safe to leave on while you are out of the house.

In the US it's often called a crock pot, after the brand that popularised it. Like we call vacuum cleaners hoovers even when they are not Hoover brand.
