The new Sear and Stew slow cooker by Morphy Richards features a hob proof cooking pot, meaning you can sear and slow cook from start to finish in one cooking pot making the slow cooking process even more efficient. It is really quick and easy to create a nutritious family meal from scratch with Sear and Stew. Firstly sear some meat within the hob proof cooking pot, then add vegetables and stock into the same pot and place the cooking pot into the slow cooker. The juices and flavours from the meat combine with the rest of the ingredients creating a richer, fuller taste. Once your pot is in the slow cooker base simply select either the high or low cooking setting, and you will have a delicious casserole, chili, curry or a multitude of other family favourites. Sear and Stew will cook your meal whilst you are out and about and have it ready and waiting for when you return home. If however you are delayed, you don’t have to worry your meal will be ruined as Sear and Stew will automatically switch to a two hour keep warm to keep your meal at the right temperature and tasting great. With a transparent toughened glass lid you can monitor your cooking progress without disturbing its cooking process, and unlike ceramic cooking pots the Sear and Stew hob proof cooking pot is extremely light and durable making it easy to take to the table and serve directly from. Its shatterproof qualities also mean if you knock it on the worktop or drop it on the floor, it won’t crack or shatter like standard ceramic slow cookers. When you have finished your meal washing up is a doddle too. The Sear and Stew cooking pot features a non-stick coating and can also go straight into the dishwasher. Settings: Low/High/Keep Warm Keep warm Sear & Stew will switch to an automatic 2 hour keep warm when the cooking process has ended, perfect if you are delayed on your return home or fancy eating later than you had originally planned. This ensures that your meal is ready at the time you require - the recipes within your instruction booklet give you a guide so no more guessing.
