Slow cooker rice pudding - 6 syns the lot or a HE A section on Extra Easy and Green plans

200g/7oz uncooked short grained pudding rice
450ml water
3 eggs, beaten
350ml skimmed milk mixed with 100ml cold water (1 HE A or 6 syns)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 tsp low salt
1 teaspoon nutmeg
sweetner to taste

Place rice and 450ml water into a pan, bring to the boil then simmer for 25-30 minutes or until the rice is cooked.

Set slow cooker to high and pour in the milk and water mix, the beaten eggs, salt, nutmeg, vanilla extract and the
cooked rice. Mix, place on the lid and cook for 2 hours.

The mixture should look like it has set, give it a stir and add enough sweetner to taste. (If you add the sweetner earlier
it tastes bitter)

Gorgeous hot, and blumming out of this world cold with a muller light summer fruits mixed in!

If you look in the winter warmer section there are two stickies about slow cooking and a search in that sub-forum will bring up loads of other recipes as well

My favourite is a beef joint slow cooked.

Just slice potatoes about 1cm thick and cover the base of the slow cooker. place the joint on this, then add mushrooms, onions (which I quater to have big bits) and cherry tomatoes. Fill with stock untill it covers the bottom 1cm of your meat, you dont need any more. Sprinkle in dried thyme, salt and pepper and cook on low for 6-8 hours.

This is a free version but to add extra flavour i sometimes add some red wine, about 1 cup wine to 2 cups stock.

Hope this helps.

Mmm.. the beef joint is a great idea. We have an aga at home so slow-cooker meals are perfect for me! Though definitely more a Winter Warmer type of meal

Hello!

I love my slow cooker, it's great when you have to work all day! I like to cook a Gammon joint in my slow cooker, so thought i'd share!

I pop it in and cover with water
Add:
1 x quartered onion
1 x quartered apple
black pepper corns
bay leaf
and secret ingrediant....a star anaise (You can get packs of these in most supermarkets and will last ages)

I leave it on while at work, then take out, cover in foil and put in the oven. Then just serve with what ever pots and veg you like. (I like roasties and steamed veg. And use a bit of the left over gammon water to make up some gravy)

Enjoy!
