Halogen oven.. brilliant thing

 

[slowmotion]

My slow cooker without a doubt.

Along with my clay Mason Cash pot for baking bread, bread bannetons, stick blender and steamer.

Oh yes! Stick blenders are good, and really cheap too. I think mine cost a fiver. They are also an absolute doddle to clean after use, unlike mixers etc.

It all started with a piccie of his sandals and socks. It'll end up with The Full Monty.

I've no objection to cous cous.

Other than the spelling?

Fair do's, an errant push of the space bar.

We haven't owned a bbq for years. We are on our 2nd one of these. We use it in conjunction with a Hi Gear single ring burner.

I don't quite know where to start with this picture. First question. Why have you got a dead branch in a pot with a mains wall light switch bolted on with cats looking like they are marking their territory? Digging the tassels on the lampshades.

Is there a "Taking One for the Team" medal. We've been shielded from so much by @Hill Wimp .

Way back in 1996 I wanted a standard lamp for my lounge, most looked old fashioned so I had a brainwave a branch of a tree so with saw in hand I found one that looked about right, de-barked it and let it dry out for 4-6 months. Sanded it all down and varnished it, I cut slots on the back to take the wires and filled it back up with plastic wood and filled the pot with concrete, job done and it's the only one like it.

It's something new to me, have never used one before. My thinking is it would be great to buy dry beans and pulses rather than canned, fast soup-making and gas-efficient in the Motorhome!

I'll start a separate thread on Pressure cookers and their uses....

spot on

I think Aluminium is fine unless using really acidic recipes. Teflon concerns me more.

Teflon is good for you.
My old teflon frying pan is well worn and flaking off.
It makes it really easy when I need a poo.

+1 for the slow cooker.
On Saturday I will be doing a Rogan Josh curry.......6 hours!!! Lovely.

Mine's a rather venerable Braun of indeterminate age. Makes doing soups and sauces a doddle.

Only down side. Whatever you do, *don't* get the angle-of-aim wrong... DAMHIKT
