Step by step

  1. Put the mince into a pan and fry on a medium heat until the meat is browned, stirring constantly. Add the onions and garlic and fry for a few minutes.
  2. Add the mince to the slow cooker together with all other ingredients
  3. Cook on a low heat for approximately 4 hours but it can be cooked for longer if wished.
  4. Check for seasoning before serving.

You can skip step 1 and add all ingredients to the slow cooker uncooked. The dish will need cooking for slightly longer, around 5-6 hours.
