Roast in a slow cooker of pork with potatoes

Slow Cooker Pork and Potato Roast

A slow cooker roast tastes just like it came out of the oven! The slow cooker has made some kinds of cooking so much easier and faster. Sure, you still have to peel the potatoes and onions — but a dish made in this handy little pot is almost impossible to mess up. So let's make a delicious roast. I really loved how it turned out, and I think you will too!

Cooking method

Step 1:

Start with the meat — a well-marbled cut works best; I'm using pork neck. You'll also need onion, carrots, potatoes, and tomato paste.
Step 2:

Cut the meat into pieces.
Step 3:

Peel and dice the onion. Slice the carrots into rounds.
Step 4:

Set the slow cooker to the Sauté (Bake) setting. Add the oil, then the meat, and brown it for 20 minutes.
Step 5:

Add the onion and carrots and cook for another 10 minutes.
Step 6:

Peel the potatoes and cut them into cubes.
Step 7:

Stir the tomato paste and spices into the browned meat, mixing everything together.
Step 8:

Add the potatoes and pour in the water — enough to just barely cover the potatoes. Switch to the Stew (Slow Cook) setting and let it go for 1 hour. You can also cook it the whole time on the Sauté setting.
Step 9:

And here's the delicious potato-and-meat roast we ended up with.
