Been out all day and have got back to a wonderful sausage casserole.

10 sausages, tin toms, tin soya beans in chilli sauce, worcester sauce, paprika, chicken stock and mushrooms. After a hard days shopping it was much needed and appreciated that i have not had to cook while being dead on my feet.

Sounds yummy

I've cooked both a whole chicken and a joint of lamb in the SC now and as tender as the meat was, I found it a little tasteless but with a slightly slow cooked taste IYKWIM. I think i'm going to stick to roasting joints now but will still use the SC for casseroles (not chicken tho, it takes on a funny taste)

Try browning it in frying pan all round and ends until it is caramalised. This gives the meat a lot more flavour. Don't move it off one spot until it is well browned - be warned your smoke alarm will more than likely go off.

today, mine had diced beef, a 1/3 bottle of red wine, red onions, knorr beef stock pot, garlic, dried herbs, put it on about half eleven, peeled and chopped pots then roasted them, steamed fresh broccoli and sprouts and some frozen peas, made yummy scrummy dumplings from scratch, turned s/c to high and cooked dumplings in the stew. was really yummy.

Moorning all. My chicken for sunday dinner (at tea time) is currently in mine. I've added a bit of water, onions and some dried sage and will used the juices to make chicken and pearl barley soup for lunches in the week. Chicken leftovers will become rubber chicken and used in a curry tomorrow night and there will probably be enough for a few sandwiches too.

Liver and bacon casserole has been in mine overnight

Half will be for tea later and the other half will be whizzed up with some butter into a pate to pot and refridgerate/freeze, this is always yummy on toast and is a real money saver.
