At step 6 add Bag 'D' and miss out the liquid
Transfer into slow cooker

Don't Burn your onions! 

When softening onions and you don't want them to colour - fry on a low heat and add splashes of water to the pan

If your curry is too hot!

• If it contains tomatoes add an extra one or two while cooking
• If it contains yoghurt add more to the dish while cooking or a spoon full on your plate

If your curry is too salty!

Add pieces of potato or dough - this will absorb some of the liquid which you can replace with plain water, just remember to take them out before serving!

If your curry is not spicy enough!

Fry your favourite spices with sliced green chilli and add to the dish before serving

Your curry is too watery

Rapid boil the pan with the lid off and your extractor on!

Get more heat into your dish!

Use the right chillies for your dish - use the chilli pepper heat scale as a guide

If you love the spice but not the heat go with the Bell pepper

But if you like it really hot, hit out with the Naga!

Most people go with the Birds Eye chilli - middle of the range heat

Don't forget like most Indian spices, chillies have excellent health benefits
