Do not place cookware and

Slow cook
The slow cook setting gives a very low
heat in the oven. It is particularly useful
when you are cooking soups, stews
and casseroles because the long slow
cooking will make cheaper, tougher
cuts of meat more tender.
Some foods such as pastry and
biscuits are not suitable for slow
cooking because the temperature is
too low. Cover all food during cooking
to prevent it from drying out. You can
uncover food for the last half hour if it is
normally served golden brown.
Using slow cook
You need to cook food at gas mark 6
for 30 minutes before you turn the oven
down to the slow cook setting. This
makes sure that the temperature of the
food gets hot enough to start the food
