A disappointing book with some hideous recipes - unless of course you want to cook fish for 9 hours.

I used this the first day the cooker arrived as it was bundled with it..........guess what........fantastic.......better than I could have hoped for......yes....I missed the glossy pic's but hey....this is simple straightforward and you can pare down the measurements to suit a couple as most are meant for entertaining.
The tips at the beginning of each section are very useful and all the measurements are in 'our money' - i.e. lbs/ozs!!

Having recently purchased a Slow Cooker (I went for the Morphy Richards 3.5 litre) after reading other peoples reviews of the various slow cookers and have been very pleased with it (cooking is even)and would recommend it.
The cooker came with 26 recipes, 3 of which were soups and 2 of which were desserts. But of course, having tried a couple I had the urge to have a recipe book/s for the slow cooker.
I read the various reviews and decided on this one.
It's a little cracker of a book, it is 13.5cm wide, 21cm long and 1cm thick. The book has a lovely picture on the front of the book but does not have any pictures of the dishes inside. The book is well laid out starting with an introduction and handy tips on slow cooking before going into the recipes. I use the cooker when we go to the gym, a wonderful meal awaits you on your return...so it stops you undoing all that good work you think you have done at the gym. You do need to do some preparation with most dishes, i.e.lightly frying onions, garlic, meat and veg before putting into the slow cooker so you need to build this into your routine before you go out. But l have to say the results are worth it. You will find that the meat is moist and the herbs, spices and garlic really do come to the show. All the recipes are in metric, imperial and american measurements and l would say that all the ingredients are availble in the uk. The only problem with this book is....you will be going back for seconds...oh yes.



5 out of 5 stars If you're a working mother... this is the perfect book!   October 15, 2005

I'm new to slow-cooking. I've just gone back to work, and have to feed a 16 month old and a husband.

This book is a treasure!! We love the split pea soup, and the winter vegetable soup, and the lentil soup, and the chicken and turkey casseroles, and the pork and cider, and the beef goulash... it's been a lifesaver. Not only is it simple, with easy to find in the UK ingredients, but it has lengthy cooking times!

When I bought my slow cooker I bought several cookbooks, and this one by far is the best. Yes, it's got UK measurements, but the lengthy cooking times are great. If you're out of the house for 9.5 hours every day like I am, you won't want raw food (particularly poultry) sitting in the crockpot waiting for a timer to kick in the afternoon - you want it to cook all day. Some cookbooks don't have all-day instructions and this one DOES!

This book is a gem and well worth the price!


5 out of 5 stars Not the updated edition, but still brilliant.   May 24, 2005

I purchased this at the same time as 'New Recipes For Your Slo-Cooker' by Annette Yates which, on recieving it, worried that it might just be an updated version of 'Real Food From Your Slo-Cooker.' Well, yes it is, but although a few of the recipes are repeated in the 'New Recipes' book, there are also a lot of recipes that have not been transferred over and therefore make the price tag worth the paying.

If you have just bought a slow cooker and are looking for a cheap book full of recipes to get you started, you won't get better than this one.
