Think of it as a glass thermos, with one open end, that when exposed to the sun, the inside gets extremely hot. Hot enough to bake with.
We've had this slow cooker since I can remember Mum only ever uses it for making stew and today I decided to make dinner so I made her stew with carrots and mashed potatoes.
This is a home-made solar cooker built by our friend Dr Alan Owen . A jar of water is being heated up by solar energy collected by the shiny panels and directed at food contained in the black box. The jar of water got VERY hot...even in the cloudy evening sun!

perfecting a basic concoction of meat and beans is my current personal mission. This is my third attempt:
2 cans of diced tomato
1 can of tomato paste
4 x celery, 1 x medium white onion
2 cans of kidney beans
6 sausages (browned beforehand)
mushrooms
4 cloves of garlic
1 teaspoon of salt
a heap of homemade chili seasoning
2 cups of chicken broth (rough estimate)
and I'll leave it in the crockpot on low for 6-8 hours.
Pumpkin cake with walnuts, ginger, and cookie crumbs sprinkled on top. As always, made in the rice cooker.
What can be more festive than staying indoors, snug in the warmth from a range cooker with a cup of cocoa? This is based on one I know, and it only has a flappy bit (I don't know, I think it's to put things to cool down on and is full of holes) attached on one side, as the other wouldn't fit where my dad and step-mother wanted it.

Ok, nothing glamorous about lentils, I know. Recipe is just titled Dal and is from "The Gourmet Slow Cooker" book.
Basically you use red or yellow lentils and add a little less than double the amount of liquid. I used about half chicken broth and half water. Sauté some onions and garlic in olive oil and add to pot. Book recommends fresh ginger of which I had none on hand. I decided to add a bit of bayleaf instead and removed it after cooking.
I cooked these for just about 3.5 hours on low and they were cooked as much I would have wanted them. They still had a wee bit of tooth to them without being hard.
It's served with greek style yogurt mixed with chopped fresh cilantro, drizzled with olive oil and sprinkled with salt and pepper. The book also recommends some serrano chiles for spice.
Both of us really enjoyed it and ate it for lunch and dinner. When Leo had them for dinner, he substituted the yogurt mix for feta and a touch of lemon. He said the lentils smelled just like his Italian grandmother used to make when he was young. This is actually my first time ever cooking lentils like this and I liked them quite well. I normally use french green or baby lentils in soups but I haven’t ever served them on their own. This is just a crazy cheap and filling dish that gave us a nice change from a lot of our meat heavy dishes we’ve been eating lately.

In the slow cooker. Is there a rule that everything in the slow cooker has to look gross at the beginning?
I got this rice cooker from a friend and have since lost the little paper I scribbled his instructions on. I'm afraid to use it until I know what I'm doing. I'm looking to get this translated into English.
The Irish arms of Tom Cooker. The horse of Kent supporting a quintain, a practice target for mounted knights preparing for the tilting field or joust. The escutcheon is based on a real example of a stylised tilting shield carved in the round and re-interpreted as a flat shield here. Enamels with 23 1/4 carat gold leaf and 18 carat lemon gold leaf for the target.
Spazio plumbing kit by Franke used with a domsjo double sink. This is a very busy cupboard as it also houses the stop valve for the gas cooker and the plumbing for the dishwasher opposite. Still trying to find a more suitable bin system.
I made this cooker today as a quick first experiment, in about one hour. At the focus is pyrex casserole in an oven bag on a steel plate. Inside the casserole is some rice and water. It did heat up, but not enough to cook the rice. It was a fun first experiment.
Watercolor painting of my rice cooker. Apologies to my wife for leaving my painting stuff all over the kitchen table.
Jersey Shore Fightin’ Texas Aggie Ring made his first ever batch of “carnitas” today. Yes, he’s eaten aplenty, but he’s never made any at home.
Aggie Ring had me drive him to the store where he selected a nice 10-pound pork shoulder (also know as pork butt, or Boston butt). “Hmmm…” said Aggie Ring. “Pork Butt. Didn’t we use that term at Texas A&M?” At .40 cents/pound, they were almost giving it away. We chose the bone-in cut because you get the good flavor from the marrow in the bone.
When we arrived home, Aggie Ring cut most, but not all of the fat off. Again, that’s where you get the flavor. He seared the “butt” on all sides to help seal in the moisture while it was cooking. Then he put it into his pressure cooker along with some mojo criollo and some extra garlic and other spices typical in Mexican cooking.
Aggie Ring brought the pressure cooker up to pressure and let it go for three hours, letting the steam release naturally once he turned off the gas. When Aggie Ring opened up the cooker, he was amazed. The meat had totally fallen off of the bone! “Well, I’ll be damned.” said Aggie Ring.
When the meat had cooled, Aggie Ring “Pulled the Hell” out of it and spread it across a baking pan. He took the pan and put it on the top shelf of the oven under the broiler to caramelize the top layer of the pork. Aggie Ring rotated the pan once or twice and left it in until the meat started hissing and popping. “It’s done.” declared Aggie Ring.
Aggie Ring took a portion of the caramelized crispy (on one side) pork and poured some salsa verde on it. Then he garnished it with raw white onion and some chopped cilantro.
The movement Aggie Ring tasted his creation, he knew he’d be making this again. “The way the pork is caramelized on one size and crispy while soft and tender on the other makes it seem that it is the love child of bacon and roast pork.” he said. The raw white onion and cilantro complemented the Mexican spices he cooked the pork shoulder with.
“You’re awesome.” I told the Aggie Ring.
“No, Sir.” said Aggie Ring. “You’re… wait for it… awesome!”
That is all
Oliver's enjoying his Christmas present. Using a bedside locker left in the street and collected by our volunteers from Handsworth Helping Hands a few weeks ago - I made a cooker for my grandson out of a discarded bedside locker. Washers, handle, nuts and bolts, hinges and screws from a small ironmongers up Lozells Road; cookware from Poundland; cooker rings are used DVDs; controls sawn from a discarded broom handle.

I found this sign in a bathroom of a restaurant. There was no oven nearby just a sink so I got very confused.
