  • 2 teaspoon Garam Masala
  • 1 teaspoon ground Cardamom
  • 1 teaspoon ground Coriander
  • 1 teaspoon ground Ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground Tumeric
  • 1 teaspoon ground Cumin
  • 1 teaspoon Parika (I used hot)

  • 4 Tablespoon Tomato Paste
  • 1 jar (700g) Tomato Passata
  • 1 tin (400ml) Coconut Cream

Instructions
 

  • Heat oil and butter until melted (either in large fry pan or slow cooker on stove top if able)
  • Add onion and garlic and cook gently until onions are soft.
  • Add chicken and seal.
  • Stir in combined spices. Cook for 1-2 minutes.
  • Add tomato paste. Stir to combine then cook for 1 minute.
  • Add Passata. Stir to combine thoroughly.
  • Cook in slow cooker on High 4 hours.

  • Stir in coconut cream in the last hour.

Notes

  • I served with seasoned rice and Naan bread.
  • I combined all spices in a small bowl prior to adding.
  • I like a little heat so used “hot” versions of paprika and cayenne. Adjust to own taste.
  • I used Breville BSC560 which is 6L with searing bowl. Adjust cooking time to your cooker.
