General cooking advice 

 

All ingredients must be fully thawed before cooking. 

 

Vegetables such  as carrots,  potatoes  and  turnips  require longer 
cooking  than  many  types  of  meat  and  should  be  cut  into  the 
smallest sizes practical.  Place in the bottom or the sides of the 
bowl and cover with liquid. 

 

Dried  pulses  need  to  be  soaked  overnight  before  adding  to  the 
slow  cooker  and  in  some  instances  (e.g.  red  kidney  beans) 
require boiling for a minimum of ten minutes to ensure that they 
are  safe  to  eat.    Follow  ‘on  pack’  guidance  when  using  dried 
pulses. 

 

Trim  excess  fat  from  meat,  as  the  cooking  method  does  not 
allow the fat to drain away. 

 

Avoid  lifting  the  glass  lid  during  the  cooking  process  as  this 
breaks  the  seal  formed  around  the  lid  and  adds  time  to  the 
cooking process. 

 

If  adding  fresh  milk  or  yoghurt,  this  should  be  done  in  the  final 
two  hours  of  cooking.    Evaporated  milk  may  be  added  at  the 
start of cooking. 

 

When adding liquid or stock to the slow cooker use hot liquid to 
reduce the cooking time. 

 

Part  cooking  or sautéing  vegetables  and  browning meats  before 
they are added to the slow cooker can reduce cooking times. 

 

Rice,  noodles  and  pasta are  not  recommended  for long  cooking 
periods.  Cook them separately and then add to the slow cooker 
during the final 30 minutes.
