Moll. 1,769 Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Hark at you with your big Italian words this early in the day Definitely raw, do people slice them really thin to get them to cook? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
the_stig 6,614 Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Hark at you with your big Italian words this early in the day Definitely raw, do people slice them really thin to get them to cook? chop ours up -- say carrots, leak, parsnip ,about an inch just chuck it in same time as the meat a good stew takes around 8 hrs float dumpling in for the last 20 mins ... or i chuck mine into a large yorkshire pudding .. cant see why your veg would be raw moll ..

Sirius 1,358 Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Love the slow cooker or otherwise known as "the electric wife" :laugh: Fry everything quickly to seal it and start it off, chuck it in the slow cooker with a good amount or stock/beer/sauce etc and let it cook!! Mol, I think your doing something wrong as after 5 hours veg should be proper soft and well cooked, maybe get a new slow cooker or if it has a low/high setting try the high one Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I just want to be able to throw everything in like other folks do I might try doing some veg later, on it's own and see what happens, how long etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chartpolski 20,360 Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Brilliant things !! I've just finished eating a hare stew made in one !! Portion the hare, put it in the slow cooker with a bag of frozen "Country Mix" veggies, some gravy granules, switch it on before you go to bed, it'll be ready when you get up !! Definately NOT gormet food, but dead easy and tastes delicious !! It's also the only way I can cook leg of venison without it going tough! Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
