I love my slow cooker (just to clarify - slow cooker - pot made out of ceramic/clay, with a cover, heated by electric heater, very cheap - you can get it even for ~20€)

I use it (currently) for 3 recipes, but I would like to expand this. The rule is that you just put all the stuff in (ok maybe some of them a bit latter) and that is it, no pre-cooking, some fancy manipulating of the food,...

(I will write recipes in the comments so that they can get up/down voted)

What's the unit of measure for the amount of paprika?

[–] mwalker789 2 points 1 year ago

3 whole paprika (I usually put one yellow, one red and one green, just for color contrast)

Brown rice.

500g medium-grain brown rice 750ml boiling water Salt

Combine in slow cooker, on HIGH for three hours.

Perfect brown rice every time. There may be a way to do it on stovetop or microwave, but I've never achieved good results. This, however, is foolproof.

interesting - never cross my mind to just cook rice. Going to try this
