Yuk - All I taste is wine!

Glad to hear things have worked out. You are probably best putting slow cooker on and not checking for hours.

Take care. GB

1 hour in the slowcooker is not long enough for the flavours to develop, give it time and have faith- taste it halfway thru. I made a sort of balti in mine last night- chicken, passata, onions, turmeric, cumin, garam masala, ginger, chilli, curry powder and towards the end i added a chopped green pepper and fresh coriander.

At the beginning it was bright red and looked like tomato soup and I was a bit worried with it being an experiment so to speak, but towards the end it turned that nice rusty balti colour and smelled and tasted fab- i don't think the taste of a dish at the start in a SC compares at all to the look, taste and smell at the end.

That curry sounds good. Will make it next friday. I would add a teaspoon of garam masala at the end also as the aromatics get lost with cooking.

DH just phoned to say it wasn't hot enough! (he took it for his carry out to work). I like things spicy but not too hot and I thought it was lovely so if you like your curries hot, you may need to add more chilli/curry powder.

Baltis aren't meant to be too hot anyway but DH seems to want me to turn it into a Madras! :rotfl:
