I made this curry in my slow cooker and it turned out perfectly. It was so easy to just throw everything in the pot and let it cook all day.

This recipe was easy to follow and the curry turned out great. I especially liked the addition of coconut milk, which gave it a creamy and rich flavor.

I found this curry to be a bit bland. I think it needed more spices.

This curry was a bit too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less chili powder.
