If you're going to be at home while it's cooking you can keep checking the liquid levels & add more if necessary. It's better to add more than have too much to start with & have a runny stew. If it is too runny try cooking it for the last 1/2 hour with the lid off.0

stew always tastes nicer when it's reheated0

I've noticed that a dash of vinegar gives a casserole of any sort a winey flavour. I picked it up from a Delia recipe for a pork casserole and have used it ever since. I don't really like wasting too much wine on cooking.0

Another thing: if it's too runny, ladle the excess into another pan and boil it rapidly until it has reduced quite a bit, then put it back. The flavour is more intense.0

If it's too runny you could also freeze the liquid and have it another day as a soup.2008 Comping ChallengeWon so far - £3010 Needed - £230Debt free since Oct 20040

With your ingredients, I'd add water or stock, maybe a tin of tomatoes, some herbs if you fancy it, and cook it nice and slowly.0

Thanks!
I don't have a slow cooker but I can just make it in a dish and leave it on low for a few hours!0
