I keep 2 x multi servers in the van so I can cook 1 Kg of pasta in one go. I don't boil for 10 mins, just boil water in kettle and pour on to cover pasta then leave for 30 mins. Don't use it for rice though as I found it falls through the holes.

I can vouch for Cas's cooking in the Dream Pot - made my tea for me last Friday, yummy.

If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, just keep going till you go round the bend.

I'm being really dense here, but I can't seem to find the price anywhere on the website. Could someone kindly point me in the right direction please? Thanks.

Now I want one!

No chance this month, as I have just had around £300 worth of stuff to fork on for on the kids, but that does include the best part of Pip's new school uniform - bought with a little growing room in.

Thanks for your review, Cas54 - how did you resolve the watery bolognaise sauce? 

I watched the video on the website and all recipes seemed to need an awful lot of liquid, which made me think that all sauces would be thin and watery.

It does seem an excellent idea and is certainly on the list of 'wants'.

A couple of questions for you.

How does it know when to stop cooking and just keep hot, and how long does it keep food hot for.

 Not made another yet ... but will use a jar or packet next time - or maybe some Arrowroot (which I use sometimes in the leccy slow cooker)

For chicken stew I used a Coleman packet mix - came out great

Think it's trail and error - using enough liquid so it doesn't boil dry (during 10 mins on hob) - but not too much, so it's watery

Arhh Surfs ---- Now I think that will be the Pots secret lol --- to hi-tech for me hehehe

I made a stew at about 12:30am .... we ate some it at 7pm ish (as hot as just off the stove/oven) - finally got home at midnight - thinking the left overs would be cold enough to decant and pop in fridge, it was still at a good eating temperture

You made it at 12.30 AM? Either you were up late or very very early, or you meant PM! Lol.

Sounds like it could be what I'm after though. Not sure if I would use it much for camping but we do alot of travelling and it would be nice to have a hot meal.

I have a Thermos Shuttle Chef that's similar. I use it all the time at home instead of a slow cooker, obv you have to be careful with safety of meat but hours later the contents are piping hot.

I also sometimes use it for weekend camping, I make the meal before we go, simmer it for 30 mins, then transport to the campsite, it's all beautifully tender by the time we eat. It'd be useful at a campsite if you wanted to cook a stew without using a few hours of gas!

Only problem with mine is there's no clip or secure lid. Feels like it needs a proper thermos scew lid for transportation.
