I have tried my slow cooker twice
first time was a disaster but hey - I'd made it all up adapted a SC recipe on the "can't be that hard" principle and boy, was I wrong! (results akin to dogfood [gag])
So second time I tried one of the recipes in the instruction book. Was supposed to be a whole chicken but we ended up with chicken soup. Literally the whole thing had fallen apart and the chicken was soggy. Even though I followed instructions precisely.
Now I really, really want to do a leg of lamb tomorrow, but am SCARED of ending up with lamb soup!
from a new SC recipe book I've got a recipe that says
brown 1kg leg of lamb
cook with 450ml chicken stock + 2/3c white wine on low for ten hours
what do you reckon? that going to work for me? because if I have to face one more dish of expensive sogged-out meat I am going to take the bloody thing outside and plant flowers in it.
