I bought the small one earlier this year @ around £13/£14, now it is £18. I find the small one is perfect- just me, for ham in cola, Delia's red cabbage, chicken casserole etc. I only have a small freezer which is bursting at the seams so can not batch cook.
My small one has a power light- really handy. the free one doesn't!
Still what do I expect for free????

Thanks for that... BUT... and it's a big one!! I hate anything that's basically got boiled milk.(Joins rice pudding, porridge)
Not keen on pasta either, unless it's lasagne
Try to avoid cheese- love it- but cow's milk variety seems to aggravate arthritis.

Yes, I am resurrecting my own thread because I just found a whole load of recipes including soda bread & chocolate brownies!
The only drawback is that it doesn't mention the size of the pot
There should be 30 recipes to scroll through........
I am going to try the soda bread as I found a great GH one with walnuts (baked in my Remoska but would like to try in sc)

I don’t use mine much, but it does a good rice pudding and I stand a covered basin of egg custard in it to cook at the same time.1
