Batlady, You’re welcome. Glad you enjoyed it!
We just had this for dinner. It was the best slow cooker meal we have had! Thank you!
Wow! Thank you so much, Emma, for the positive feedback! 🙂
Can this be cooked on high for 3-4 hours instead?
Marie, Yes, that works.
Is the coconut milk added after 6-8 hours of cooking or with sweet potato etc.?
Karl, The coconut milk and lime juice are added after the 6-8 hours of cooking time. Stir in these two ingredients and continue cooking another 10-15 minutes, or until hot. 🙂
Definitely a great soup! Good test! Loved it. I personally don’t like slow cooker, so I used pressure cooker in stead.
Maria,
We’re so glad to hear you loved the soup! A pressure cooker is a great alternative to a slow cooker.
This is phenomenal. I accidentally forgot the lime, but its still amazing. Definitely the best and easiest curry dish I have ever made. Thank you!
So glad you enjoyed the recipe, Elise! Thank you for letting us know!
