    Ive done a moroccan lamb shank meal before with chickpeas it was yum. Served with Ainsley harriets packet flavoured cous cous and DD1 loved it!

    The mild chicken curry slow cooker packet mix is nice too, I use coconut evap milk not coconut milk so less fat but it does seperate a bit, tastes great just looks odd. I add pumpkin, cauliflower and zucchini to it.

    I also do an oven chicken casserole, which you could adapt to the slow cooker just use a little less liquid

    Brown Floured diced Chicken Thighs (about 600g) Brown bacon (about 200g) add 1 diced onion 2-3 diced leeks and about 2 cups diced muhroom, I glass white wine, garlic, 1-2 cups chicken stock (enough to cover) and then put in casserole dish in the oven. Delish with mashed potatoes and green beans or if you are having it that night crinkling some filo over the top about 20 minutes before you pull it out the oven for some crispness.

    I use a similar method to make a mild curry with rogan josh paste, 1kg diced beef (cheap cuts), 1-2 onions, 1 zucchini, capsicum, 2 potatoes 800g diced tomatoes. Brown meat and paste then add all the veg and about 1/2 cup water, cook on stove top about 10 min then in casserole dish in oven. Not a traditional curry but nice all the same.

    Oh Yummy. These all look great!

    Olive, the Corn, potato and chorizo chowder sounds delish!

    N2L, oh my gosh that sounds Divine. Do you heat soup up first then add meat to slowcooker?

    Novella, using curry paste sounds like a good way to make a dish extra yum too!

    Black beer casserole

    Beef
    Veges - onion/carrot/celery/whatever
    Black beer (Cascade is best)
    Pepper, salt, beef stock.
    Packet of vegetable soup mix
    Packet of brown onion gravy.
    Cornflour to thicken

    Sometimes I double the beer, soup and gravy to make a bigger lot.
    Can add in Kumera or potatoes to bulk it up.
