A mate of mine was around just after the roasting was completed so I let him try a couple. He obtained the recipe from me and then scurried off to the local Makro to get himself a similar slow cooker.

I have a slow cooker but have never once thought of roasting anything in it! I somehow thought you had to use liquid in them. Mine comes out from under the stairs as and when its need. It happens to be out at the moment as I used it yesterday - I think I will try this. Its not a 'special' sort of slow-cooker that you have, is it?

It's the "multicooker" that I reviewed herein. https://www.cookingbites.com/threads/philips-hd-4746-multicooker.8514/

I see. Its called a multi-cooker but I can't see a 'roasting' function listed. So er...do you think my standard slow-cooker would work?

Mine doesn't have a "roasting button" - just put it on "congee" and try it for 60 minutes. That's what I did the first time. In fact that's what I always do.

[Edit: I don't know why they are called "slow roasted" really]

I don't have 'congee'. I just have high, medium, low!

A quick google suggests I can cook them on high. I presume they are not 'crispy' roast potatoes?

Mine are usually pretty crispy. About the same as what comes out of my hallogen oven - although a different taste.

Ok I know which slow cooker to use.

 

[Morning Glory]

Mine have been in the slow cooker on 'high' for 4 and a half hours and are not crisp! They smell amazing though!

Peeling the potatoes now.

Checking in. They were almost done after an hour. I figure that was the slow cooker I chose. They didn't get real crispy because I turned them way down.
They were delicious even without the onion.
