    I've done turkey fricasse which is basically loads of mushrooms, some gently fried onions and a white sauce (made with marge flour and water) and then poured over the turkey. And a bouquet garni thingie bunged in.

    Was recommended to serve with rice or roasted veg.

    Turned out nice - sure you could use the soup option though.

    argh! I have discovered that I only put the SC on Warm!! given that it's pork, if I blast it for 3 hours on high (and have a late tea) will it be ok or am I gonna poison us???

    Hmm not overly sure on this one, but would guess that you should cook it as normal - to be safe - then refrigerate or freeze it ... and have something else for dinner. Good excuse for a Chinese :D

    well it's been on high for about 3 1/2 hours now and seems fine, bubbling away. I would normally only cook on high for about 4 hours anyway, so gonna chance it I think....
