Can you tell me some recipes which you recommend for this method, please?

Many thanks.

Hello Mrs Didi

Most Meat curries and dals/lentils will cook well with this method. Only thing I will say do not cook in it is kidney beans and some of the similar beans.

See here; http://en.allexperts.com/q/Indian-Cuisine-759/slow-cookers-crock-pots.htm for some ideas.

any Indian dish which needs long slow cooking is the obvious answer, so this would include all the kormas, including rogan josh and dopyaz dishes, and shab deg, of course. I've only made rogan josh by this method, and it worked very well.

I do all my curries in the slow cooker now and they have never failed me. In fact they get better and better that even when I make double for freezing they never make the freezer

I have got Mamta's Afghanistan curry going at the moment. Marinated it over night then plopped it in the slow cooker with cumin and cardmomums. No precooking nothing.

It smells gorgous and am getting hungry thinking about it.

The only one that does not work is Biryani. Beef and Lamb are perfectly cooked in the slow cooker.

Hi Fiona

I can smell it all the way across the pond in California LOL!!

I bet slow cooked curries are delicious, like 'dum' curries. Dum curries are cooked in a sealed pot, on low heat, with a few charcoals (the ones that have almost burnt out) put on top of the lid.

I have been thinking about getting one myself, I used to have one a very long time ago.
