Slow Cooker Coconut Green Beans Curry

A slow cooker curry is one of the easiest and tastiest meals to make. This one's made from spices, chopped tomatoes, coconut milk, chickpeas, veg, ginger, garlic and a dollop of miso for extra umami flavour. It's colourful, creamy, delicious and easy.

Substitute:

  • No pumpkin? Swap for sweet potatoes, carrots, butternut squash, potatoes or aubergine (or any other veg). 
  • No curry powder? Use garam masala, curry paste or ground cumin . 
  • No miso paste? Try it with soy sauce. 
  • No rice? Serve your curry with quinoa, couscous, barley or even leftover pasta.
