Chef Jeenas crock pot spinach and potato curry is very aromatic and healthy.
Chef use white potatoes along with sweet potatoes, peas, green beans and of course spinach. The flavours are fantastic and it is really easy to cook.
What Chef really love about using a slow cooker is that you can use aromatic dried herbs such as methi leaves (as I have in this recipe) and they cook into a soft green delight to eat rather than a chewy dried leaf that has been cooked too quickly.
Dried herbs are fabulous for slow cookers and give a lot of flavour - especially in meat free recipes where extra flavour is sometimes needed.
Sweet potatoes, spinach , peas, herbs and spices all have great health benefits, you can enjoy healthy food just as much as any other dish.
Chef serves this spinach and potato curry with some creamy soya yogurt which was so very delicious but guilt free as well, it was also served with basmati rice and fresh bread.
