My daughter finds this family-size curry recipe easy to make because there’s no chopping involved. She can find chopping vegetables difficult so where possible she uses frozen ingredients.

This is also a very quick recipe to prepare because once all the ingredients are measured out, they are added to a slow cooker and left to cook. Whenever possible the recipes she cooks are 5 ingredients or less.

I suspect one of the reasons she likes this recipe is our family rule is if you cook you don’t have to clean up, so she enjoys watching everyone else load the dishwasher and tidy up.

Serving Suggestions

A curry needs rice or bread to accompany it. My daughter uses microwavable rice and, if we’re in for a special treat, heats some Naan bread in the Air Fryer, and serves it with mango chutney and raita as well.

Summary

This is one of the easiest one-pot recipes to cook. Because the ingredients are just left to cook for hours, the meal makes itself. All your young person needs to do is serve, so this is a great dish for them to able to make for the family or even for their friends.

I’d love to hear your feedback on how your young person found making this recipe.

I’m the father of a daughter with additional needs. I understand how the journey can be tough, frustrating, and lonely. Sometimes it’s hard to imagine a future where they are secure, have self-dignity, have purpose in their lives, and have a community around them. I learned a lot from our journey, and that’s why I wrote, What’s Possible? Plan a better future for your young adult with additional needs. It shows you how to start making a life plan with your child.
