Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Low and slow Greek chicken

    • sarahj22 on September 28, 2025

      I made a couple of changes which I think is why my version turned out okay but unremarkable. I used skinless chicken breasts (skipping the browning stage), plain black olives and.cooked on high for 3 hours, then shredded the meat into the sauce. The flavours were fine but lacked the punchiness I love about Greek food. I'm sure following the recipe more precisely would have led to a better dish.

Publishers Text

Following on from the success of Cook Slow, MasterChef's Dean Edwards returns with over 90 mouth-wateringly fresh and delicious recipes for perfect home-cooking.

Slow cookers are often confined to heavy winter recipes made with stodgy ingredients and with poor nutritional content. Cook Slow: Light and Healthy shows you just how versatile your slow cooker can be with effortless, nourishing recipes inspired by dishes from around the world. Avoid boring 'diet food' and cook slow to create healthy, wholesome food for balanced eating.

Don't own a slow cooker? Don't panic! The recipes in this book can be cooked either conventionally in the oven or in your slow cooker.

Recipes include:

  • Coconut Fish Curry
  • 'Melt-in-your-mouth' Teriyaki Beef
  • Vegan Black Bean 'Meatball' Marinara
  • Chipotle Jackfruit Tacos
  • Crispy
  • Baked Aubergine Katsu Curry
  • Maple Baked Figs with Granola

"I'm not going to go all scientific on you, but at 70 DegreesC (160 DegreesF) something magical happens. At that temperature, the so-called tougher of chewier cuts of meat begin to break down and become meltingly tender and a joy to eat. Basic ingredients can blend into something spectacular. Something as simple as a beef stew using inexpensive ingredients can become a delicious healthy meal the whole family can enjoy." - Dean Edwards
