    We're having lamb eye fillets in the slow cooker - after 10hrs they just fall apart ... yummo
    Did them a little like Cai's greek lamb recipe in the SC thread, with a few extra herbs added.

    To go with it - garlic cheesy mash, bok choy, asparagus & baked cherry truss tomatoes with a balsamic sauce... hhhmmmm!

    Balsamic Sauce.

    1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
    2 tbs sugar (white or brown)
    20g butter.

    Heat balsamic & sugar in a saucepan on medium until simmering for approx 5 mins, or when it starts to turn 'syrupy'
    Remove from heat, stir through butter until melted.

    Thats it, its the easiest sauce ever

    Sarah I hate anchovies but honestly melted into oil they lose most of their fishy flavour, and for some strange reason to me they taste like truffles. I'm weird I know.

    Holly your dinner sounds divine, I haven't used my SC in a while I'm thinking of making a ragout tomorrow night with steak and mushrooms and peas in the SC. But I suddenly have a hankering for lamb I also have some osso bucco in the freezer as well.

    LSK can you share your recipe?

    Go Tali! - keep up the good work...

    LMS - Glad the bread thing worked for you - you really need to keep the potatoes dry to stop your gnochhi dough getting wet. I'm with niliac...try the anchovies dissolved into the oil, it's a completely different flavour.

    We're in frugal mode here this evening...we went out for a chinese chilli crab feast thing with the inlaws last week, and we brought the leftover crab back from the restaurant.

    So we had the crab meat tossed through some pasta with garlic, chilli, tomato and olive oil for lunch and I'm making a traditional French style crab bisque from the leftover bits of shell for dinner.
