There’s only me and my daughter would it work the same if I halved all the ingredients ? And would I need to cook for same length of time ?
Why not make it as is , then freeze the remaining for a lazy dinner one day
Problem is only have a tiny freezer xx
Michelle then halve the ingredients but not cookingvtime
Thank u x
When you say “heat oil in a pot and add the beef” do you mean the slow cooker pot or a separate saucepan?
means a separate pan
Thanks
A couple of times I added potatoes in the stew and cooked it in the sc, the potatoes came out … leathery! What am I doing wrong? I experimented with more or less liquid but the potatoes came out the same
I always put potatoes at the bottom
Made this recipe for 2 adults so halved it as we only have a small slow cooker that wouldn’t have taken that quantity of water. However that meant the amount if meat was really tiny so next time I would halve everything except the meat. Really low in calories. Felt if needed bread with it as it was quite watery.
We don’t like Swede or other veg like that. If I double the carrots would replace the Swede. I would then serve with other veg like broccoli or would it be too much carrot.
Yes add any veg that you like . P
Not if you like carrots lol xx Lorna xx
I’m not keen on swede either so I replaced it with button mushrooms … yummy x
