Slow Cooking

Slow cooking doesn't have to be hard work; just prepare and put everything in one pot, set the timer and go off and do something else while your meal cooks itself. This book shows you how to do just that, featuring over 135 delicious simple-to-make recipes for soups, stews, casseroles, roasts, comforting hot-pots, and easy one-pot meals. Creating real, delicious food that is given time for the flavours to meld and develop doesn't have to be hard work; the succulent recipes in this cookbook can just be assembled then left to simmer, bake or stew.

Master traditional, flavor-packed comfort food like a classic Lancashire hot-pot, a rich Provencal beef stew, or a creamy seafood chowder. You will also learn to whip up impressive, aromatic global dishes like a slow-cooked rabbit casserole with juniper, sweet and savory Moroccan lamb with honey and prunes, and fiery spicy tamarind chickpeas, alongside a range of tantalising slow-cooked desserts.

With full details of all the ingredients you will need and how best to use them, successful results are assured every time. It covers essential techniques from braising and pot-roasting to poaching and using your slow cooker as a bain-marie.
