Steps:

• Slice the onions and cut the potatoes into 4 cm pieces
• Place the dripping or fat in a pan and very gently sauté the onions. They should soften but not colour.
• Add the potatoes and stir them to coat and mix thoroughly with the onions.
• Transfer to your slow cooker pot.
• Grind up stock cube (if using) with salt, sprinkle over the potatoes and onions in the slow cooker.
• Pour over the water, don't be tempted to add more, 30 ml is all you need) put on the lid and cook for 1 hour 15 minutes on HIGH, then 1 hour 15 minutes on LOW.
• When the potatoes are cooked, take a wooden spoon and roughly break up the potatoes. You want to retain chunks of potato but roughen up the edges.
