Hi my slow cooker doesn’t have a browning mode. Also the ingredients say
1 tsp heap Vegetable
1 tsp heap gourmet stock power.
Is it Vegetable stock & gourmet stock 1 tsp each or 1 of Vegetable gourmet stock powder?
Brown on stove top instead then 🙂
I’ll double check re the measures for you
Hi Mish
Sorry yes its 1 tsp heap of vegetable stock.
And you can brown the shanks in a pan. After you have brown them remove them and pour some of the stock in the pan and bring to the boil to get all the yummy bits from the bottom of the pan & pour it into the slow cooker bowl.. It will add extra flavour..
