@Tigerfish2 McCormick spice company has some recipes online for mini multi cookers.
Try looking up slow cooker recipes online and then reduce them
accordingly. There are websites that will help you convert to the size of your appliance.*
You could see if his book is available on Amazon. Checked, it is not. Guess keep checking HSN to see if/when they restock the book.
On the HSN website when you pull up the item--739-381-and scroll down you can click on User Manual and then scroll to the very end of it and there are a few recipes--including one for chicken cacciatore-- or which you use the multicook option and the recipe takes 30 minutes.
*Seems as though it is a very small capacity unit so you will probably have to reduce main ingredients like meat and vegetables by at least 2/3 or more is my guess, since most slow cookers are six quarts and the model I found (model number posted above) is 27 fluid ounces designed to hold 1 &1/2 cups of rice, for instance.
I did a little more research this morning and found a website for Aroma Housewares with a manual for a rice cooker (MRC-903 pdf) that has about the same capacity as your CS multicooker. It has a few recipes posted that look pretty good, including one for pasta.
They also have a general website called Aroma Test Kitchen that has recipes for their other appliances that maybe you could adapt.
Usually a very few companies make these types of "celebrity" appliances with little variance in the specifications so you might be successful using my suggestions to locate some recipes until his book designed for this cooker comes back in stock.
Did you get any manual with your purchase or a clue on the packaging? If so, you might be able to do an online search for recipes plugging in that company's name. It might be Dash. They seem to make a lot of these small appliances.
There is a website--Instant Pot Teacher dot com that has the curtis-stone-durapan-nonstick-minimulticooker video from HSN and about 5 or 6 minutes in it starts to show him making recipes. The mac and cheese was dried pasta, cream cheese, some other kind of cheese, cheddar maybe, chicken stock. And he continued on with some others. I did not watch the entire 26 minute video.
Wolfgang Puck has a Rice Cooker that apparently is 1 &1/2 cup capacity. His Simply the Best is listed on Amazon--1 new left and several used at various prices and conditions. I have ordered used books from vendors there without problems. With his book as a guide you might just be able to double the recipes.
Hope some of this might help you.
P.S. @soonersis and @Thats Me apparently purchased this item.
If you search Multi Mini Cooker in boards you will find their ideas in the kitchen forums along with some other multi cooker threads other than Curtis Stone's.
Okay, think I am done researching/brainstorming!
Best,
