Easy,....... the thing about slow cookers is you add everything you want cooked in the begining........i.e. all ingredients go in....add plenty of water to fill pot almost to the top. turn it to Low and cover it up.......come back after 8 hours. it is done.
For Daal I add salt, red pepper, haldi, tomatoe, chopped onions a few pieces of meat for taste. or No meat
1 cup of daal needs atleast 3 to 4 cups of water.........
similarly for meat stew or Chili............
Chawal you have to be careful if you do not want too sticky....for plain rice proportion is 2.5 cups of water for each one cup of rice.
let water come to a boil add salt and zeera and black pepper and rice.
When you see the whole mixture is boiling instantly turn the heat to LOW, cover up the pot with tight lid wait 20 minutes, rice will be done.....:)
Re: Slow Cooker
ok so masla goes first than chicken/meat.
do we add oil?
Re: Slow Cooker
a crockpot, maybe that is what you have. it comes with a booklet.
you can make anything - boil rice, alloocheney, steamed chicken curry even.
dal absolutely. 2 cups of dal will need 3 cups of water to have dal fully be boiled.
the trick is to cook for enough time to get the recipe fully cooked. since it wont burn as it is non stick from the inside, if yours is.

usually in stew you do not need to add oil! the Oil in cooking is mainly to fry Onions and then the meats and masala.
For Meats like Chicken or Beef or Lamb, put all Masala you want into the pot, along with chopped onions, salt and pepper, adrak/lassan and 2 cups or more water per pound of meat......if it is Meat Stew is what you are looking for....pretty easy....no tending to the pot or stirring, keep heat on low it wil be done in eight hours....:)
