If you’re wondering whether or not slow cookers are all they’re made out to be then the answer is yes! They’re economical, easy to use and cheap to buy. They’re also great to use with some of the most budget ingredients.

For those who work daily and find it hard to put aside time to cook, the slow cooker can be your saviour. Cooking with one is healthy and require very little effort. Seriously, what’s not to love about that?  Here are some of the best tips you can use to make the best out of your crock-pot:

Prepare the night before
If you don’t have much time in the morning, you might want to prepare everything you need the night before. You can either put all the ingredients into the slow-cooker and store in the fridge overnight. But this also means leaving it out for 20 minutes before turning it on in the morning.

Don’t put too much water
As your slow cooker will have a tightly sealed top, the liquid won’t evaporate. Make sure the water just covers the meat and vegetables.

Slow is not a bad thing
Try and use the ‘Low’ setting as much as you can. Your dishes will really benefit from this as gentle heat brings out the best flavours. Also, this setting is perfect to use especially when you’re out the whole day. It’s almost as if you have a personal chef that cooks for you and has your dinner ready for when you arrive home from work.

Don’t touch it!
Slow cookers have been designed to do their own thing, which is the very reason it’s completely okay to leave it for an entire day. Refrain yourself from occasionally checking the contents of the slow cookers, as each time you take the lid off, you’re releasing some heat. If you keep doing so, it will take longer than it normally would to cook.

Save some money
Slow cookers are perfect for cooking the cheaper cuts. Some of the hardest meat will be tender by the time the slow cooker is done with it.
