In her first book, Miss South turns to one of her favourite kitchen appliances, her beloved slow-cooker, and shares 200 recipes for economical, adventurous food. Look forward to mouth-watering one pots, including Pulled Pork, Sausage Ragu, spicy Gumbo, Beetroot Orzotto and even easy Christmas Pudding.

Her ideas include plenty of hearty stews, soups and curries, braises, pasta and rice dishes, and lots of meat-free ideas as well as foolproof recipes for slow-cooked chicken, pork, fish, seafood, lamb and beef dishes.

There are scrumptious puddings, cakes, brownies and breads, simple jams, chutneys and relishes and easy side dishes and clever ideas for using up leftovers, all using your slow cooker.

This is no-fuss, affordable, flavoursome slow-cooker food at its very best.
