Method
To Slow Cook
1
Turn the slow cooker on to pre-warm while gathering and preparing the ingredients.
2
If wishing to brown the ingredients: brown the lamb chops in a dash of oil in a hot frying pan. Do not crowd the pan, as the lamb chops will stew.
3
Layer half the potato slices evenly over the base of the pot.
4
Layer the lamb, carrots, onions and celery on top of the potatoes.
5
Sprinkle over the mixed dried herbs.
6
Layer the remaining potato slices on top ensuring that the top layer is nicely arranged.
7
Season liberally with salt and pepper.
8
Dissolve the stock in water and pour over the ingredients in crockpot. Place a piece of baking paper on top. This will prevent the potatoes from discolouring.
9
Cover with the lid.
10
Cook on low for 7-8 hours or high for 4-5 hours or until the meat and vegetables are tender.
