I remember the first time I tried curry. I saw this recipe by one of my favorite bloggers and was intrigued, so I picked up some curry paste and coconut milk on my next grocery shopping trip. Now curry paste and coconut milk are staples in our house. I don’t make curry too spicy so Lleyton will still eat it, but the flavor from the curry, coconut milk, fresh ginger, and garlic is amazing.
Curry is so easy! And you all know how excited I get about easy, delicious dinners. This is the first crock pot recipe that I’m posting on the blog, but trust me when I say that I use my Crock Pot all the time. It is hands down one of my favorite appliances. It’s a real workhorse for me in the fall and winter when I’m making a batch of soup, stew, or chili once a week, but I love using it in the summer when it’s too hot to stand over the stove or turn on the oven.
Also, Crock Pot has amazing customer service. About 6 months ago, the Crock Pot that I had for years just stopped working. I knew it wasn’t covered under warranty, but I contacted the company to see if they could help me troubleshoot the problem. They told me they would send me a brand new Crock Pot, free of charge, as long as I sent them my defective Crock Pot! They even provided the box and shipping label for my broken Crock Pot. How amazing is that? I’m a customer for life.
I hope you make and enjoy this super easy dinner as much as we did! Serve it over rice, noodles, or enjoy it by itself!

I’m excited to try this! What size can of tomato sauce? Thanks!
Hi Alicia! I’ll be sure to put it in the recipe, but a 15 oz can is what I used!
