This healthy and delicious creamy curry is perfect for cooler nights. Made with real food ingredients, this recipe is paleo friendly, gluten free, dairy
free and sugar free.

This is a great recipe to make in your slow cooker or on the stove top. I use organic beef (or lamb) from Sherwood Rd Organics, Brisbane.
As you will see in the recipe I love to serve this curry with cauliflower rice to add a serve of vegetables.

Notes

Notes:
  • Great to serve with a side of greens or add spinach leaves in final 5 minutes of cooking time.
  • Adjust spice to liking by adding more or less chilli (can also use fresh chilli).
  • If you are sensitive to onion and garlic, omit onion and swap garlic for 2-3 tbsp garlic infused olive oil.
  • You can also use lamb or chicken to make this recipe.
  • If using chicken, the cooking time will reduce.
  • Serve with cauliflower rice, brown rice or quinoa.

    Ummmm so my fussy children had seconds!! I wasn’t sure how this would rate with my 3 kids so I made it with steamed rice instead and they loved it. I made it in the slow cooker and the smell through the house was amazing
