Synopsis
Many of the dishes are cooked as one-pot meals. Others require a simple accompaniment - rice or pasta for instance. Preparation is simple, using very little fuel, and the results are outstanding. Here, we bring the slow-cooker market the very best of vegetarian eating from around the world - Creole, Caribbean, Mexican, British, Eastern European, Central European, Mediterranean, Lebanese, Indian, Pakistani, Chinese, Japanese and even Australian fusion cookery. This is another certain strong seller in the slow-cooker market that we dominate.

Customer Reviews

Not a bad book!
I've rarely used my slow cooker in the past, except for beef chilli for my husband. I had limited expectations (although I don't know why), but this book has turned up trumps.
There's a whole mix of recipes (1-2 hours, 6hrs, savoury, sweet) and most include everyday ingredients that probably hit your shopping list anyway.
A few recipes;
Lentil Dhal with onion, cumin and garlic
Spicy Chick Peas in a a tomato sauce with rosemary
Vegetable Casserole with thyme and cheese dumplings
Spiced Couscous with apricots, feta and pine nuts
Butter Bean and Pasta Casserole with gremolata
Sticky Toffee Pudding

Some recipes require you to fiddle a fair bit but most recipes are a total breeze, and ideal for me who cooks vegetarian for herself and then has to cook a meat/fish meal for the husband.

Buy it.

Deeeelishus!!!!!!!!!
My slow cooker was underused, because as a vegetarian I could find very few inspiring recipes. I bought this book on the strength of the previous review, and I have used it almost every day since. All the recipes so far have been enjoyable, and most have been superb. I prepare the ingredients the night before, bung @em in in the morning, and come home to tasty nosh. I only took a star off because there are no pictures, and I like to know what stuff should look like (what can I say? I'm a natural blonde!)

Brilliant book!
My daughter is vegetarian, and a student, and she was looking for easy, imaginative recipes for her slow cooker. This book totally fits the bill - a wide variety or interesting and unusual dishes, where you can just throw the ingredients into the slow cooker in the morning and come back to a delicious dinner in the evening. You really can slow-cook for vegetarians, and this book shows you how.
