Method
 

Steps
  1. Begin by chopping the stewing beef into 1-2 inch cubes and season generously with salt and pepper.
  2. For a richer flavor, heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of oil. Add the seasoned beef and sear it until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Transfer the seared beef (if you sautéed it) into your slow cooker. Pour in the canned diced tomatoes, followed by the creamy coconut milk, curry powder, minced garlic, fresh minced ginger, and diced onion. Stir everything together.
  4. Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on low for 6 hours.
  5. In the last 15 minutes of cooking, stir in a generous handful of fresh spinach.
  6. Once your Slow Cooker Beef Curry is finished, ladle it into bowls and serve it hot over fluffy rice.

Notes

Storing leftovers in an airtight container can keep it fresh for 3-4 days in the fridge. Avoid curdling the coconut milk by adding it during the last hour of cooking.
