PK’s Coq Au Vin
I have been sitting on this post for about 9 months now because I wasn’t sure it looked appealing. I was worried that you wouldn’t be inspired enough to try it. Sometimes though we need to be reminded that we are our own worst critic and a good friend of mine just did that. She…

PK’s Lazy Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff
This slow cooked dish isn’t going to win me points for authenticity but it is tasty, easy to make and kid friendly :). My youngsters insist on having the sour cream (that you would normally mix through) on the side and they are not mushroom fans. I feel however, that you need mushrooms for a…

PK Makes River Cottage’s Citrus Braised Lamb Shanks
Everyone has a dish that they feel slightly guilty about. Guilty because somehow it turns out exceptionally good every single time. This is mine and it has magical powers :). It is originally from the hit Channel 4 series and books, ‘River Cottage’ and I merely adapted it to work in a slow cooker. I…

I can see you shaking your head but trust me it is a transformational part…

PK’s Slow Cooker Chicken Stock
This was the first time I have made my own stock. Up until this point I had thought it wasn’t worth the time and effort required. I couldn’t have been more wrong :). After a quick bit of prep I left it to its own devices overnight. In the morning I recovered the left over ingredients,…
