Good Food: Slow cooker favourites

Product Information

The sauce was a little on the thin side at the end of the cooking time, but reduced nicely after half an hour on the simmer/buffet setting.

The prunes in the marinade give a lovely rich sweetness that goes hand-in-hand with the roasted garlic and slight tang from the pomegranate molasses. Every recipe in the book uses one of three pans: slow cooker, a sauté pan/casserole dish or a baking tray – so you don’t need tons of equipment.Accompanied throughout with full-colour photographs and a nutritional breakdown of every recipe, this collection of Good Food 's favourite triple-tested slow cooker recipes will work first time, every time.

Recipes include familiar slow cooker staples as well as new ideas such as a veggie Lancashire hotpot, whole roast chicken cooked in cider and red Thai prawn noodles. There are two shapes, the round and tall, which has less of a footprint, and the oval, which takes up more room but can be more versatile. Sink your spoon into a gorgeously gooey slow cooker sticky toffee pudding soaked in a rich butterscotch sauce and served with vanilla ice cream. Despite this model being from GreenPan, it lost points for the amount of difficult-to-recycle plastic packaging it came with – a disappointing oversight from a brand that puts sustainability at the forefront.
