Slow cook meat

This is ideal for cheaper cuts of meat - and can taste wonderful. Brown your meat well to give your sauce good colour and flavour. Make sure your dish cooks gently at a low temperature in the oven. Never let it boil or the meat will end up tough and dry. Ensure you cook the meat for long enough. Chicken will take about an hour but tougher cuts will take 2 or even 3 hours to become tender, falling off the bone. Check the dish isn’t becoming too dry during cooking, adding more hot stock if necessary.
