  • Cook the mince until browned, breaking up with a spoon as you go. It doesn't need to be fully cooked at this point but caramelisation equals more flavour.
  • Once the mince is browned, stir in the garlic, tomato paste and spices and cook for 1 more minute then tip everything into the slow cooker.

  • Add the rest of the ingredients to the slow cooker, including the water and chicken stock cube. Give everything a good stir then pop the lid on and cook on high for 4 hours or low for 8 hours.
