Slow cooking to perfection! This is my favorite dish to prepare on a Sunday afternoon. I usually prepare it around 1 in the afternoon so come dinner time, it’s ready! For busy people like me and you, this is the perfect dish to prepare. In between the time of 1 to 6 hours, we can still do our work or other chores. It is very beneficial if you think about it. Not only that it tastes really good but it’s also hassle-free to prepare. You just have to let the slow cooker do the magic. By the way, you can eat it with steamed rice or mashed potato or anything you wish to eat it with. Enjoy!
