Have you got any 'after' pics from this? Interested in the result. Just dusted my slow cooker down, want to put it to work this week. Thinking of starting with a beef randang but this also looks a lovely option...

Well it was delicious, and I highly recommend giving it a go. On the day I cooked it we ate it like a brothy soup. That’s how I’d intended it, with a half remembered early Jamie recipe in mind... and it was good. But evthe leftovers evolved a bit today into a much superior form. I’d used quite a bit of pearl barley, maybe 150g and it expands like the clappers, and lent slightly creamy edge to the broth which intensified overnight as it was absorbed. So I thought I’d roll with that and turn it into a kind of risotto (sorry, I forgot to warn you to sit down @giofox haha). I added a little double cream, some peas and fresh mint, topped it with some of the pulled, crisped ham hock and a poached egg.
It took all of 5 min to start and 10 min to finish.

So i’ve put it in the slow cooker for the day with a load of pearl barley, bouquet garni and veg.
