People who cook slow

I put cheap stewing beef in from a packet in dunnes.

How was the curry? I find if you leave dishes like curry or stews on for 8-10 hours it seems to cook the flavour out them a bit. I have got better results flavour wise cooking on high for 4 hours.

I know what you mean. It works wonders for some dishes like tagines and some curries though and gives a really deep, rich flavour. I wouldn’t use it for a green thai curry.

Aldi are doing a slow cooker this week for 19.99. Might give it a try.

Mother in law has the also one. Does the job very well.

Gonna try a shoulder of lamb at the weekend

Couldn’t go wrong for that price the electrical stuff is normally fine anyways. My electric sander, knife sharpener and ash vacuum are still in perfect working order (unused to date)

For an extra 5 or 6 quid you could have a reliable brand instead of one that will burn your house down. Slow cookers are lethal, and you’d need your head examined to buy one for any less than €20.

As an aside, herself bought a steam mop from Lidl - it’s pooched after less than a year.

I bought one of these yokes anyways debut outing underway

I bought a turkey breast gave it a good slathering in a herby rub and fucked in a few carrots onions and leeks with it…

Assume it will be OK with limited amount of liquid in the pot? I.e. doesn’t need to be haLG filled with stock or anything?

[TreatyStones]

I’d guess turkey not the best meat to use? Perhaps it will be ok if you don’t leave it on all day.

Don’t add anything. As TS said you’d be better off with a fatty meat, it’s more designed for that

Cheers gents. Too late now…fucked in a cup of chicken stock there just in case

[HBV]

those carrots will takes two days to cook in that pot

[gilgamboa]

Absolutely correct on the carrots. I cut them up after you said it and 6 hrs later still like stones. Fucked them in the bin.

The turkey was cooked grand but I used a shit recipe tbh so not one bit happy with it.

First honest man ever to grace the thread. Keep it up!

[Fagan_ODowd]

Signing in. Got the Aldi one. 19.99 for a big orange 6.5l beast of a thing. I have a lamb tagine on the go here.

[balbec]

Indeed, makes a change from all the little Nigella’s posting on here.

[ironmoth]

Fair play. No bollix-acting around with chicken curries or the like, only straight in there with a north African classic.

What time will you be tucking in? Will you post the picture of the plate here, Ravenous, or in the TFK Nightwatchmen thread?

Get a clear run of the day
