    Hi

    I have some lamb in the freezer that i want to slow cook tomorrow. DH & Kids have both asked if it can b a minty lamb style dish.

    UM... I need some help with a recipe idea. Would the lamb and a jar of mint sauce in the slow cooker be ok?

    Buy your bananas in bunches of 5 on Sunday. Then arrange them in order of ripeness and write a day of the week on each banana in felt pen, Monday on the ripest, Friday on the greenest to save time making those decisions on a hectic weekday morning
  • In my slow cooker today is a large gammon hock from the butchers which cost £1.49 :)

    Looking forward to having some of it tonight with bubble and squeek made with yesterdays vegetable leftovers from roast dinner YUUUMMM

  • In my slow cooker I have:

    turkey leg
    potatoes
    onions
    carrot
    swede
    parsnip
    chicken stock
    sage
    thyme

    Hope it's ok, haven't done it before! Will go home at lunch and have a look at it and maybe give a quick stir - I know I shouldn't but I can never resist!

    Don't forget though that everytime you take the lid off you are reducing the cooking time by 20 mins, ie you should leave it for 20 mins longer than planned if you do that. This is what it said in the instructions that I got with my s/c.

    Thanks Carlsberggal, I don't like lamb or mint sauce so couldn't really think of the right quantity!

    I have Hungarian Goulash in mine today, recipe (chosen by OH)came with the MR Slow Cooker, and the MR Slow Cooker came to my house this morning so this is the first ever dish!! :eek: I am not convinced about the cooker at the moment though, I dont think the lid fits properly so I will wait and see. Exciting though :D
    S



    Edited to say that the Goulash is flipping luvverly. Going to have it tomorrow evening with boiled tatoes and cabbage.....assuming OH peels & cook the tatoes as I will be at work all day!!

    the lid will seem loose, it seals itself though while cooking so don't worry about it ;)
