I am obsessed with slow-cookers right now. It's winter, the cooker heats the apartment, and it smells tasty all day. Plus, after the initial chopping and adding, it's really low-effort.
Anyway, my first successful slow-cooker experiment was as follows:
8 dried apricots
1 pound pork shoulder
1/2 red cabbage sliced small
2 big sweet potatos cubed
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
I put the apricots on the bottom and laid the uncut pork on top of them. Then put the red cabbage on top of that, and sprinkled the apple cider vinegar on that. The sweet potatos went on top. I cooked on low for 10 hours (without stirring), then another hour on high, and the food reabsorbed the liquid in the bottom of the pot.
It tasted so good -- like a holiday dinner -- so I made it twice this week :lol: It turns into a really thick stew, so if you're the kind of person who likes their foodstuffs to be kept separate, I wouldn't recommend it.
Does anyone else have good slowcooker recipes?
