Who doesn’t like a creamy, savoury Curried Spinach dish that cooks itself and acts as a warm dip or a side dish? Toss ingredients into your slow cooker, press start, play cards or whatever it is you do when you’re cooking, then resurface 2 1/2 hours later to stir in a little yogurt and lemon. The most challenging part of the recipe is making sure that you have cumin in your spice collection.
