  As we were down the allotment again this morning a fast and easy dinner was the order of the day. I made a  Coconut curry  recently in my New Smartlid Ninja, and so I thought to reheat it using the slow cooker function. I got it reasonably hot using the saute function and then switched to Slowcook, HI, 4 hours, but as the curry was already cooked I knew just a couple of hours would suffice.

Their time states 30 mins, but I have set mine to 15mins at low pressure with a delayed-release. To be honest I have no idea why I even chose low pressure or delayed-release?? It's just dragging out the pain wondering if the dam curry is going to be cooked in time. Only time will tell and possibly bite me on the bottom for not getting it sorted sooner as, thanks to Covid, Hubby comes home to dinner every day. Not because his canteen is closed, but because...
