Directions
1Place chicken and onion in slow cooker
2Combine all other ingredients and pour over chicken
3Cover with tea towel trick and cook on low for approx. 4hrs.
4If yours requires extra thickening at the end, you can stir through a slurry of 1T cornflour mixed with 1T tap water in the final 10mins to thicken the sauce further, however ours did not need this.

What brand or type of curry powder is best to use?

Delicious! I changed up the recipe though. I halved the chicken. Used chicken thighs instead of breasts and shredded them at the end. I used a whole container of mango slices and juice (685g) and used a whole can of coconut cream (400g). And didn’t use the teatowel trick as I prefer lots of sauce, plus more liquid is needed when shredding meat.

This recipe was absolutely delicious. I used apricot nectar as that’s what was in my pantry and 1 tablespoon of curry powder as I wanted it to have a bit of bite without being overwhelming. The smell whilst cooking was the best. My son came Home from school saying please say the smell I can smell down the road is our dinner. I cooked on low for 4 hours as I find my slow cooker hot i think I could of got away with 3 hours. This is definitely going on rotation as my fussy husband even loved it.

Greetings
A question on terminology if I may, what is meant by ‘nectar’ in terms of the recipe?
Is this what my American friends call fruit juice or is it something different?
Thank you

Did this tonight using chicken breasts. So so yummy will definitely be making again. Everyone loved it & nothing left on plates so it’s a winner.

Did this tonight with 2kgs of chicken legs. I also used 3 heaped teaspoons of curry powder and about 400ml of mango nectar and a regular tin (400ml?) of coconut milk. Was worried it would be too much curry powder but definitely wasn’t, not spicy at all. Was pretty yummy.

It’s like a juice yes, another option is to buy a tin of mangoes in juice and blitz/process them and use that – I often do that and it’s delish!
