Can you really make hot pot in a slow cooker?

This Lancashire hotpot recipe is a great alternative to a lamb stew and can also be made in the slow cooker. Leave it to stew all day whilst you’re at work and it will be finished cooking, ready for the whole family as soon as you are ready to eat. You could also use beef if you wanted to just by substituting the lamb for beef and the lamb stock for beef stock.
