Made with warm Indian spices, tender beef and hearty vegetables, this aromatic slow cooker beef curry is the ultimate guilt-free cold weather comfort food.

Hands down, the most popular recipe of all time on The Lemon Bowl is my Slow Cooker Chicken Curry. And frankly, I’m not surprised! We make it at least several times a month because it is fast to throw together, super flavorful and packed with lean protein and hearty vegetables.

Slow Cooker Beef Curry is a twist off my chicken curry made with tender stew meat, creamy butternut squash and loads of other vegetables to keep you satisfied with fewer calories. Garam masala, curry powder and fresh ginger hit all of your favorite spice notes without too much heat which is ideal when feeding little ones. Of course, you’re welcome to dial up the head by adding in more cayenne.

The real star of this dish, however, is the creamy whole milk plain yogurt. This tangy, protein-rich ingredient is one of my secrets when it comes to preparing lower cost cuts of meat like stew meat.
Yogurt is a natural tenderizer which makes it ideal for marinating chicken or beef. In fact, plain yogurt is the secret to my Beef Shawarma with Cucumber Yogurt Sauce and Indian Spiced Grilled Chicken.
Your fork is waiting.
