Occasionally on a Saturday night my husband Howard and I would order a takeaway. We both love pizza and we would sometimes order one. As I have mentioned in previous blog posts I love a curry and this was always my preferred choice. My husband also enjoys curry but he prefers a Chinese. My preference would normally be the takeaway that we would order.
Nowadays I have a slow cooker and it makes me feel like we have ordered a takeaway. A slow cooker is a great way to have a meal on the table without having to stand over a stove for hours. Plus, depending on what you put in the slow cooker, they are cheap to cook in. They use less electricity than an oven and you can cook cheap meat in them as well. As I’m in charge of what goes in the slow cooker I choose a curry most of the time. The recipe below was so yummy and it’s one I had to share with you.
Do you love an Indian takeaway and if so, what’s your favourite meal on the menu. Let me know in the comments below and please don’t forget to like and follow me.

Slow Cooker Seafood Masala Curry was a huge hit in our house. My husband Howard, son Ted and I loved this dish. Also I served it to my cousin Virginia and her partner Florian. They enjoyed it as well. It was a very easy dish to prepare and cook. You could make double of this meal and freezer it. Then all you have to do is defrost it when you want to eat the second portion. It made a delicious meal for little family and my friends as well. However you decide to eat this dish, as always, please enjoy. Thank you xxx
