It was Mak's idea. She said just put in the ingredients in the morning and voila by dinner time there will be a lauk ready.
I cooked beef casserole yesterday and MashaAllah how tender it was too!!! Delicious!!
All I had to do was to prepare the ingredients in the morning then place them in the slow cooker and forget about it. I could leave the house and leave it on so I didn't have to hang around the kitchen to tend to it. By the time it was dinner time, it was ready and still hot.
I noticed I had some extra time to spare because I was not spending it in the kitchen :)
Yes I am in love with the slow cooker (let's hope it lasts and it won't be kept dusty and useless in the cupboard hehehe).
Today: Gulai ayam; notice the terung? It's from my garden heeeeee :D

this idea is so cool!nak try jugak ler..ae kan jual kat mesia slow cook ni..masak apa2 pun boleh la ek yg berkuah?
masuk list shopping bulan depan. :p
ana- sgt menjimat masa! haah semua yg berkuah. bubur pun boleh. segala macam sup. tak sabar nak buat sup tulang!!
intan- ahaha..anything to make our domestic life easier when working is good with me!
i love slow cooker too..ada 3 bijik and started giving it as gift for newly weds sebab byk kebaikannya and you got it right dear, menyenangkan!
ingat masa dulu nak htr nael pergi nursery, the night before letak nasi, segala vege/meat and in the morning, tadaaa..congee for his bekal :)
tahu tak akak ada slow cooker tapi jarangggg guna, hihi. kenapa ek? tak reti guna kut :P pernah masak bubur je dalam tu :P. beef casserole pun tak pernah buat. nanti put up recipes using slow cooker eh.
wah menariknye!!! kene try nih! hehehe
Nak pinjam Zan's move lah, and get slowcooker for peoples wedding gift. Macam best je (eh, sendiri pun tak ada lagi...huhu).
Definitely on my to buy list nih.
sungguh terliur memikirkan sup tulang. my only problem is lover tak suka sangat makanan bersup. tapi i sebenarnya sungguh terpikat. nak nak part jimat masa.
i nak 2 benda..satu benda yang grill electric tu and satu lagi benda ni. oh and stove yg ada oven sekali, atas fire and oven electric and a solitaire sekali please.
I pun sama cam Zan!!! masa anak kecik2 dulu orang cakap kita raaaajin buat bubur nasi bekal untuk anak2 kat nursery...my secret is the slow-cooker lah and Zan, kita pun bagi hadiah orang kawen slow cooker jugak!!!
Nak buat bubur kacang ke, masak dhal ke...kacang merah ke...semua senang!! masuk jer lepas tu tidur (kalau malam laa), bangun pagi everything dah siap!!
kalau perlu yang tumis2...tumis je kendian lepas tu campak dalam slow-cooker.
Lollies: kita pun nak benda2 yang sama cam awak tu!!!
zan- wah...didn't think of that...(duh). bleh leave overnight jugak yeayyy. thanks for the suggestion!
k aini- how did u get a slow cooker ? hadiah ek? hahhaha. baca la manual kahkah. recipe tak special pun.. lauk2 biasa je. cuma kene tumis kat kuali/periuk dulu and biar air masakan boiling dlm kuali/periuk then baru transfer ke slow cooker. beef casserole - salut diced beef with salt, pepper and flour. pas tu tumis ngan bawang. then tuang beef stock, masukkan kentang carrot and peas. then letak dlm slow cooker! pekat kuah dia and daging sgt empuk yums.
uswah & musayba- yes yes jom try ..bleh share recipe nanti
lollies- what is a solitaire? i take for granted my stove. here all stoves have ovens and grill. best wo. and tak yah beli gas sbb gas sambung through pipeline.
ur lover suka makan benda goreng2 aje ke? tak suka kuah eh?
OO- akak kene share idea lagi la. sbb my slow cooker came with a recipe book tp recipe mat saleh aje la! tak terpk lak bleh masak dhal hehehe. apa lagi akak masak guna slow cooker?
aliya, tolong put up recipes guna slow cooker banyak eh. kah kah, nampak sangat aku tak tahu u have to tumis all those things atas kuali dulu :P
erk. I have one at home tapi tak guna pun. Guna sekali beria2 masa raya je itu hari. Buat chilli con carne. Itu pun sebenarnya sebab takde periuk yang cukup besar nak masak atas dapur.
*amik notes - kuah dhal, beef casserole, sup tulang..
he likes berkuah but not soup. kalau sambal or asam pedas or curry or masak lemak dia suka. yang ala ala sihat dia kureng.
k aini- LOL mmg sah kene gi bukak instruction booklet. okay InshaAllah i will share some slow cooker recipes
k nina- lerrr yet another person yg ada slow cooker..popular rupanya benda alah ni.. bakpe tak penah share idea hehehehe..eh..agak2 kalau masak rendang jadi tak ek (the word raya prompted the idea)
lollies- ooo asam pedas and masak lemak itu bleh masak dlm slow cooker jugak :p
bolognese sauce for pasta pun boleh (yang letak minced meat tu) - lebih sesuai kalau nak buat sauce tu from scratched bukan yang ready-made tu.
oo bagus2. memang best. tapi lama kan masak guna ni. hows the electric consumption?
eh akak. kalau guna slow cooker, takyah tumis2 ke? slow cooker x mcm pressure cooker eh. haha. cetek ilmu nih.
mcm nak satu, sbb selalunye balik rumah dh penat, and end up eating out je hihi
OO- hehe thanks!
rusy- it doesnt use that much electricity. because it's only on low heat.
abidah- kene la tumis for some things especially masakan melayu. pressure cooker guna kalau nak something masak dengan cepat! terbalik. so kalau nak masak daging..dlm pressure cooker sejam je dah empuk. tp pressure cooker kene jaga la. pas tu ada potensi utk meletups. slow cooker mmg slow..tp itu la benefit nya..so slow that u don't need to tend to it. bleh tinggalkan aje dia masak sendiri. mcm rice cooker
masyitah - hehe sila2. eating out bosan gak lelama..plus all the ajinomoto! not good
morning... to dinner time. wah2. i wonder if it consumes a lot of power. hopefully not.
ic... low heat. hm, and it's not much of a volume vs fridge / airconditioning
