Soups, casseroles and stews

Do not cook casseroles over 2.7kg (6lb).

Bring to the boil on the hotplate then cook on slow cook. Cook in the middle of the oven or above.

Cover food with a tight fitting lid or tin foil.

Vegetables

Cut into small pieces.

Dried beans must be pre-soaked then boiled in an open pan for 15 minutes before adding to any dish.

Place vegetables under meat in casseroles. Cover food with a tight fitting lid or tin foil.

Cook for 30 minutes at gas mark 6, then reduce to the slow cook setting.

Milk puddings

Cover the cereal with boiling water and allow to stand for 30 minutes.

lDrain and make the pudding in the usual way.

General points for slow cooking

Frozen foods

Thaw thoroughly before cooking.

Thickening

Toss meat in flour for casseroles. Alternatively blend cornflour with water and add at the end of cooking.

Flavouring

Flavours are retained because there is little evaporation. Adjust at the end of the cooking time.

Liquid

Reduce normal liquid quantities slightly as there is little evaporation during cooking time.

Milk and milk products, for example cream

Add these towards the end of cooking to prevent them from curdling.

Reheating

Left over food should be cooled quickly and refrigerated.

Do not reheat food using the slow cook setting. Reheat food conventionally or in a microwave. Food must only be reheated once.
