Slow Cooker Chicken Massaman Curry Recipes

Steps:

• Place the potatoes and onion in a slow cooker.
• Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the beef and garlic together in the melted butter until the beef is browned on all sides. Transfer the beef and garlic to the slow cooker while keeping the beef drippings in the skillet.
• Return the skillet to the medium-high heat. Stir the coconut milk, peanut butter, and curry powder into the reserved beef drippings; cook and stir until the peanut butter melts. Pour the coconut milk mixture into the slow cooker. Turn the slow cooker on to Low; stir the fish sauce, brown sugar, and beef broth into the slow cooker.
• Cook on Low until the beef is fork-tender, 4 to 6 hours. Stir the peanuts into the curry about 30 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Trim meat of excess fat and sinew and cut into 2-3cm cubes.
• Heat the oil in a heavy-based pot and fry the onion until brown.
• Add the meat, season and continue to brown all over.
• Add curry paste, heat through until fragrant. Add half the coconut cream, lower the heat and cook gently for about 5 minutes.
• Put the potatoes on the bottom of the slow cooker.
• Pour the mix on top of the potatoes.
• Add the water, remaining coconut cream, cinnamon and bay leaves and cook on LOW, covered, for 8 hours.
• In the last hour, season to taste with fish sauce, palm sugar and tamarind paste. (I like to add a few handfuls of peanuts, too).
• Garnish with peanuts and coriander and serve with steamed basmati or jasmine rice.

Steps:

• Add chicken, coconut milk, onions, tomato paste, garlic, ginger, cumin, turmeric, garam masala, coriander, curry powder, bay leaves, cinnamon stick, salt, and pepper to a slow cooker.
• Cook on High until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 2 to 3 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove and discard the bay leaves and cinnamon stick. Shred the chicken.
