Thank you celtic-chick x

I don't follow a specific recipe, but basically it is as follows, with amounts to suit how many portions you want to make, or the size of your slow cooker you are using.

Lean braising/stewing steak/beef or a joint of brisket cut up into cubes, red onion, carrots, button mushrooms, garlic and a bouquet garni, put in the slow cooker, seasoned with salt and ground black pepper, then cover with equal quantities of beef stock and red wine.

I tend to cook it on high, then reduce to low or medium, when it looks almost cooked, which can vary depending on the meat.

Thanks Lynne. I can't wait to try it

Anyone able to tell me about the full chicken. Do I skin it and put it in? Or how does it work? Do I just season it with lemon and herbs or do I need any oil or spray oil.

Is there a follow on from this thread? Or has it just stopped?

 

[marybobs]

I think it just stopped @Sooz6780 I tried to start another but no luck either. I did however manage a few meals that are great in the slow cooker. I've done the chicken and stews and a curry.

Pudding rice, skimmed milk (HE-A), sweetener, slow cook for 4-5 hours on low. Ta da!

Sometimes I put raisins (synned) in it, it's nice with a muller light stirred through it too.

Quantities depend on the size of your slow cooker.

That a gd idea. I made sw rice today. It has water milk vanilla essence and sweetener. Will try it in slow cooker
