★★★★★ Rated 5 out of 5 stars.This is my favourite slow cooker recipe. The meat is very tender, the flavours are lovely - hardly spicy at all so suitable for children but has a little kick which pleases those with a more discerned taste! I have recently recommended this in our local daily paper in response to a request for slow cooker recipes. You must try it.
