Good Food: Slow cooker favourites

Product Information

It has a modern-feel with intuitive controls and an outer casing that only gets warm to the touch, rather than excessively hot. Accompanied throughout with full-colour photographs and a nutritional breakdown of every recipe, this collection of Good Food 's favourite triple-tested slow cooker recipes will work first time, every time. Please get in touch and we will do our best to source your book, no matter how unusual or specialist. All recipes are short and simple with easy-to-follow steps, and all are accompanied by a full-colour photograph of the finished dish.

Accompanied throughout with full-colour photographs and a nutritional breakdown of every recipe, this collection of Good Food's favourite triple-tested slow cooker recipes will work first time, every time. Finally, they offer a healthier, low-fat way of cooking and often preserve more nutrients than other methods such as baking, boiling and frying.Although it doesn't actually require a slow cooker, the same melt-in-the-mouth effect is achieved by roasting on low in the oven for several hours. This is a newer, more sophisticated step-up from Ninja Foodi's 6-in-1 multicooker, packing in nine functions for performing key kitchen tasks, plus a couple for fun. Slow cookers vary considerably, so follow your manufacturer's manual for guidelines on temperatures and cooking times. As the meat requires searing before cooking, if we were able to do this straight in the cooking pot, we did so.

Recipes include familiar slow cooker staples as well as new ideas such as a veggie Lancashire hotpot, whole roast chicken cooked in cider and red Thai prawn noodles. But for versatility and quality of the results, this Russell Hobbs model is a great option in our eyes.

Even better, the exterior of the slow cooker got lukewarm at most during cooking – which is a reassuring safety feature for those with littles ones in the kitchen. The book contains lots of nice looking meals and for me the object of using a slow cooker is that you can create quick, easy meals with minimal preparation. Design: Are you looking for a simple, budget-friendly option that just slow-cooks (but does it extremely well) or something more versatile that sous-vides, pressure cooks, bakes and roasts too? Mains under 3½ hours include a selection of risottos, soups, veggie curries and pasta bakes, whilst recipes requiring a longer slow cook include a pumpkin, brie and sage lasagne or lentil and celeriac shepherds pie.

Ingredients are familiar and make the most of vegetables and spices rather than complex vegan alternatives. Some of the controls also confused us – the button that looks like an 'on/off' switch is actually just an 'off' switch, and we failed to find any reference to this in the manual. Use this cut to make a rich and creamy pot of slow cooker beef goulash, complete with fresh tomatoes, peppers and smoky paprika.

We would have liked to have been able to adjust the volume of the timer as we found it too loud, but the advantage it is you shouldn't miss hearing it going off. It’s not just suppers that can be cooked to perfection in the slow cooker – these seriously comforting, homemade puds can all be made in the slow cooker too. Slow cooker recipes are also hugely popular and can be used to cook a range of delicious stews, casseroles, soups and curries, as well as less obvious dishes such as yogurt, grains, dhal and puddings.
