The first thing you need to consider with any slow cooker is its capacity – each will list its bowl size in litres. Bear in mind that this won’t translate to the same amount of food, as you shouldn’t fill slow cookers to the brim. This gap allows your food to bubble and simmer properly. The usable cooking space will be around three-quarters of its bowl size, for example, a five-litre cooker can accommodate around four litres of food.

Some can suffer from hot spots that cause drying out in corners or at the base. Uneven heat is something that’s more likely to occur in larger bowls. Each pot provides a 1.5 litre capacity for a combined 4.5 litres, providing plenty of space to make hearty portions for family and friendsNo liquid escapes from a slow cooker, so when adapting a recipe not specifically written for a slow cooker, reduce any added liquid by a third. The advantage of this is not leaving all that lovely seared flavour behind in a pan, and it reduces washing-up. Finally, look for a slow cooker with a transparent lid, so you can keep an eye on your food’s progress. Lifting the lid of a slow cooker while it’s in use lets out heat and steam, prolonging cooking time. It’s always best to be able to see what’s going on without doing so. Are slow cookers easy to clean? A slow cooker allows you to cook a variety of hearty meals without the hassle, from flavourful curries and mouth-watering casseroles, to spice chilli and nutritious vegetables Size: With sizes starting at 1-litre through to a whopping 6.5-litres, choosing the right size for you is imperative. The smallest sizes are suitable when cooking for one or two. 3-litres to 4.5-litres (one of the most popular sizes on the market) serve four, and the large 6-6.5-litre models are super for families and batch cooking. It's also worth bearing in mind that the capacity stated on the sales blurb is the size of the bowl, not the working capacity, which can sometimes be half that. You can activate a keep warm setting to keep your food ready for as long as six hours after your cooking mode has finished. The sear mode took only a few minutes to pre-heat and we were able to brown our onions before adding curry ingredients, which delivered a lot of extra flavour.The slow cooker's 'reduce' function was useful for bubbling away excess liquid after slow cooking.

Basic slow cookers won’t get hot enough to sauté meat or vegetables, so you’ll need to do this in a pan before transferring the contents to the bowl. However, more expensive models offer a different one-pot solution. This can either be bowls that you use on your hob or in your oven in place of a pan (some will even be induction compatible). They will need to be moved to the slow cooker base. Machines with a sauté function for high-heat browning can simply be switched to slow cooking. Spoon rests- Each ceramic dish has a spoon notch for super easy serving, when closing the lid to keep your food warm youwon't need to remove the spoon from it's pot.

Individual temperature controls with 3 heat settings allow you to effortlessly cook a whole host of meals and includes a handy keep warm function, ensuring food stays warm and ready to serve on your schedule. Slow cookers are also brilliant for less-than-confident cooks, easily creating all those meals that seem a bit scary on the hob. That’s because slow cooking develops the flavours of food for richer, tastier results. It’s not just dinners that slow cookers excel at making either. They make great porridge, granola, stewed apples, bread and butter pudding, fudge and dips. You can use your slow cooker to melt chocolate, as a Bain-marie. How much should I spend on a slow cooker?

Most slow cookers will have similar standard controls – high heat for meals cooked in less than a few hours, low heat for all-day cooking. A 'keep warm' mode should hold food at a serveable temperature without actually cooking it. Some cookers will switch to 'keep warm' automatically after an elapsed cooking time, while more basic models need this altered manually. Slow cookers vary considerably, so follow your manufacturer's manual for guidelines on temperatures and cooking times.

The cooking times will vary according to the size and shape of your roast, what type of roast you have, and whether or not it is bone-in. Then you need to decide do you cook your roast on high or low?However, if a roast is cooked for too long, the fat and gelatin continue to run down through the meat (due to the effect of gravity), and will run out of the meat joint and into the liquid in the slow cooker. Design: Are you looking for a simple, budget-friendly option that just slow-cooks (but does it extremely well) or something more versatile that sous-vides, pressure cooks, bakes and roasts too? Do bear in mind that the more technological the slow cooker, the higher the price. Each pot has built-in individual temperature controls to cook 3 different dishes at the same time, perfect for serving up a buffet for guests or a whole meal for your family without the fuss The slow cooking process helps these roasts get more moist and tender as they cook, unlike leaner roasts, which tend to dry out when cooked in a slow cooker.
