I have bought a slow cooker recently and have used it a couple of times now. I love it and the food has come out yummy.
I'm having a problem with thickening stew in it, I tried cornflour today and it didn't go well. The pot was pretty full and I put water in it to just cover the food. The cornflour just added syns it didn't thicken the sauce at all. I left it to cook for a good half hour after adding the cornflour too.
Is there anything else low-ish in syns I could use to thicken a stew? Am I just putting too much liquid in? Is there a certain way of using cornflour to get a nice thick sauce?
