Delia has a nice recipe where you wrap the pork in foil with mushrooms on top, I think it may involve a tin of mushroom soup but could be any kind ...

Or you could go down the 'boulangere' route: slice your potatoes and onion thinly, layer them and the pork in a shallow dish, pour over seasond milk and bake.

Do I need to more precise than that, or can you muddle through? I'm a muddler, and I'm at work, so not much access to cookery books, and my lunch hour will end soon ...

No, that's given my a few ideas, thank you! x

Got a big 4lb or 2.5kg piece of beef that I need to pop in my slow cooker for a 12 noon lunch tomorrow, how long should it take on low in a mr slow cooker?

Never seen a piece of beef that big before, but goy friends coming to visit.

Thanks

If it's the 6.5 litre MR slow cooker that I've got it won't be as long as you'd think. I did a 4 and 1/2lb piece of brisket in mine a few weeks ago and it was done in 6hours. I browned the meat on all sides (holding it up with two wooden spoons as neccessary) before putting it into the slow cooker with chopped veggies & stock. HTH.

It`s in a 3.5l MR, I normally put a small joint in before bed, so put it in about 3 hours early.

It only just fits in! So will turn it in the am, can not see that we will eat it all, 5 adults, 1 15 year old boy and 2 primary school aged boys.

Think it may be sliced up and put in the freezer, atleast I got it on offer.

Good for you on finding it on offer It'll make some lovely sandwiches on Sunday too - my DH loves his beef sandwiches with mustard & I like mine hot with gravy :drool: Enjoy it and your lunch with friends.

Hi All

I'm not sure if it was from last year or the year before, but there was a recipe for Spaghetti Bolognese in an issue of Easy Cook and it was quite simply the best I've ever tasted Looks like my copy has been slung out, so I'd be really very grateful to anyone who could help

Thankyou

Nic

If you go to the BBC EasyCook homepage and search for bolognese it brings up ten recipes. Is it one of these?
