If you are feeling overwhelmed by the thought of cooking and serving up meals every night for your family then this recipe is for you!

It’s a simple chicken curry, made in the slow cooker so can chuck everything on in the morning and just leave it to cook.

It’s made with Mayflower Curry Sauce Mix. My kids absolutely love this as its a brilliant way of making a really flavoursome curry with minimal ingredients!

Slow Cooker Recommendation

Slow cookers are the one piece of equipment that I don’t think you need to spend a lot of money on. Yes the more expensive ones have timers and other functions but a high/low setting is all you really need in my opinion!

This is the Slow Cooker I used for this recipe and its currently £19.99.
