Morphy Richards Accents Sear and Stew Slow Cooker, 3.5 L - Red

Product Information

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. The digital settings on this appliance allow you choose a low, high or keep warm setting and how long you want food to cook for. The timer starts from a minimum cooking time of four hours and increases in 30 minute increments. Once you press the start button, the timer counts down until the cooking time ends.

Each slow cooker comes with a simple set of settings: low, high, and either keep warm or auto. A keep warm setting will keep your food at a level temperature, usually for up to four hours, while an auto setting tends to cook food on the high mode until reaching a certain temperature, at which point it will switch to the temperature on a low setting. If you know you’ll be away from your slow cooker when you want to turn the food off a high setting but still keep it warm, this is a useful function. Unlike other products on this list, the ceramic bowl and glass lid are not dishwasher safe, but for people who want a simple, no-frills cooker that they can plug in and switch on before going about their day, the price makes it a top choice. Our tester made a hearty vegetable lasagne in this slow cooker, which lasted for a good couple of meals. It also comes in a 1.5L and 6.5L capacity. First step with any unit is always a good wash first of the lid and inner bowl that you will be cooking in. The best feature of this 6.5L Red Morphy Richards Sear and Stew Slow Cooker is the searing feature. Key spec – Size: 1.5L; Dishwasher safe: Ceramic bowl; Cooking pot: Ceramic; Settings: 3 (manual); Timer: NoLakeland has a range of slow cookers and this 3.5L oval version is ideal for cooking lunch for two people with leftovers, or dinner for four. It comes with a warning that the outer layer may get hot while cooking, and the handles and cooking pot itself can become quite hot to touch, especially if cooking on the high setting. Like the other slow cookers on this list, it has a plastic handle in the centre of the glass lid making it easy to serve the food without fear of burning yourself. 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. To calculate the average price, we add up the cheapest daily prices of the last 90 days and divide by 90.

One of the great benefits of slow cooking is convenience. Many like to add ingredients, turn on and walk away and let dinner cook itself.
