African Beef Curry

I am in LOVE with curry...I've never had curry at a restaurant, but have only ever made it. I know there are different types of curry too. I found this recipe while reading a cookbook my mom let me borrow...I place it all in the crock pot and the smell alone would have made me eat.it.right.now, except the beef was raw! So I'll try to be patient for dinner to be fully cooked!

African Beef Curry- from Taste of Home Recipe Collection 2009
1 lb beef stew meat
1 14.5 oz can diced tomatoes
1 or 2 red or green pepper(s)(I only used one)
1 onion, sliced
1-2 tbsp curry powder
salt

Place all ingredients in slow cooker and stir well. Cook on low for 8-10 hours until beef is tender. I will be serving this over jasmine rice.

**While this smelled really good cooking, all day long, there was something missing. I am not sure what and I'll have to try another recipe. There was just not enough flavor...the coconut I sprinkled on top helped though. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. I haven't experimented enough with curry to know what will go with it. I do make a really good peach/citrus curry but not sure how well that will go with beef.
