I have recently become the carer for my wife and now have to do all the cooking. Has anybody got some simple recipes that an old novice could do using the slow cooker. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I'm doing Persian lamb at the moment
This is a shoulder of lamb coated in a paste of onion/garlic/chilli/ginger and spices and cooked on low for 24 hours. Smells wonderful!

I made beef olives in the slow cooker yesterday and ruined them. Didn't help that OH was so late home. I turned them off after 6 hours on slow, and just kept them warm. When I took them out an hour and half later and tried to take the string off they just fell apart. They did taste OK but looked awful. Perhaps we should have eaten them in the dark!

Did a whole chicken resting on plum halves and coated in Chinese 5 spice powder. A little stock. 6 hours in low. Served with noodles and pak choi. Yummy!
