How To Make Slow Cooker Simple Fish Curry

1. Add fish and spices: Place the fish in your slow cooker. Scatter over the curry powder, turmeric, garlic, and ginger, then pour in the vegetable stock. Cook on low for 1 hour.
2. Add spinach and coconut milk: Add the spinach and coconut milk to the slow cooker, then cook for a further hour.
3. Check fish and add yoghurt: Check the fish to make sure it’s cooked through. If your fish is in bigger chunks, you may need to cook it a little longer. Stir in the yoghurt and scatter over the coriander and sliced chilli. Season to taste.
4. Serve: Serve with basmati rice and naan bread.

Recipe Tips

• Use firm white fish: Opt for firm white fish like cod or haddock to prevent it from breaking apart during cooking.
• Adjust cooking time: If your fish chunks are larger, you may need to cook the curry a bit longer for it to cook through.
• Stir gently: When adding the yoghurt, stir gently to avoid breaking up the fish and keep the texture nice.
• Add more spices for extra heat: If you like a spicier dish, add extra curry powder or chilli when cooking.
• Use fresh spinach: Fresh spinach wilts down nicely, giving the curry a vibrant color and rich texture. Avoid frozen spinach for best results.
