We are huge fans of coconut curry and love to eat it year round, which is why we decided to make a lightened up version that’s perfect for summer and entertaining family and friends. If you’re serving a large crowd, feel free to double this recipe.
About the slow cooker
This Slow Cooker Green Curry recipe is made easy thanks to the Crockpot™ Choose-a-Crock Programmable Slow Cooker–all you have to do is add the ingredients, mix and let your slow cooker do its thing (it doesn’t get much easier than that!). The digital countdown display lets you easily monitor and track the cook time while the auto warm setting automatically switches the temperature to warm when it’s done so your food doesn’t overcook. This slow cooker also has interchangeable stoneware — the 6-qt stoneware is ideal for large meals, and the split 2.5-qt is perfect for dips and appetizers! Bonus: the stoneware and lid are also dishwasher safe (hello, easy clean-up).
