Privacy NoticeWhen it comes to creating mouthwatering meals, you don’t have to spend hours and hours standing next to the hob or checking on traybakes in the oven. With a slow cooker, you can simply add your ingredients before stepping back to relax and let the gadget do the hard work. And, despite misconceptions, slow cookers aren’t just for stews. In fact, a whole world of delicious meals await, and melt-in-the-mouth beef brisket is just one of the recipes that you can create using a slow cooker. Thanks to its cinnamon notes and hint of orange, the recipe is distinctly seasonal and perfect for wintery days… Mulled wine brisket Serves 6

Ingredients 2 large oranges, sliced 1.5kg boneless gammon joint 20–25 cloves 1 cinnamon stick 1 star anise 1 bay leaf 500ml cider 6 tbsp honey 1 tbsp mustard Method Place half the orange slices in the bottom of the slow cooker and place the ham on top. Add the cloves, cinnamon, star anise, bay leaf and cider and cook on high for 4–5 hours or low for 7–8 hours. Allow to cool. You can also stud the ham with cloves for extra flavour, if you like. Place the remaining orange slices in an ovenproof dish and place the ham on top. Trim the skin and/or fat off the ham until just a thin layer of fat remains, then score it in a crisscross pattern. Brush the ham with the honey and mustard, then cook in an oven preheated to 190˚C for 25–30 minutes, basting every 10 minutes.
