Cook Time 4 hours 30 minutes
Total Time 4 hours 45 minutes

Ingredients
 

  • 850 grams of small washed potatoes, skin on (I used baby cream delights)
  • 1 x small brown onion, thin sliced
  • 100g diced bacon
  • 100g diced chorizo sausage
  • 2 tsp minced garlic
  • 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
  • 500ml COOKING cream
  • 1.5 cups grated tasty cheese
  • Sprinkle of paprika
  • Non stick cooking spray

Instructions
 

  • Spray slow cooker bowl with non stick cooking spray
  • Rewash your potatoes to ensure they are nice and clean. Leave skin on.
  • Slice the small potatoes thinly - if you cut them thick you will need to increase your cooking time to ensure they are cooked to tender.
  • Lay half sliced potatoes in the sprayed bowl.
  • Add think sliced onion rings, bacon and chorizo
  • Cover with second half of potato slices
  • Add garlic and pepper to cooking cream and mix well (see note below re cream)
  • Pour cream mix over.
  • Cook with tea towel/cover under lid for 2hrs high + 2.5hrs low (or 4.5hrs on auto).
  • 30mins before serving time add cheese on top and a sprinkle of paprika then re cover it and continue cooking so cheese can melt.
  • (I use the paprika as it gives the look of browning - but you can finish it in the oven if you prefer)
  • Serve straight from slow cooker and enjoy :)
  • We served ours with sombrero chicken and salad as pictured
  • Note: Cooking cream is a pourable cream in the cream fridge of your supermarket that is less likely to split during cooking than regular cream.
