- 1 cup apples, peeled
- 2 cups apple cider
- 1-1/2 cups water

- Mix together cider, 1 cup water and vinegar.

- Before serving, turn Crock-Pot on high. Mix remaining 4 tablespoons flour with 1/2 cup water. Stir into Crock-Pot to thicken stew.
Helpful hints
- Potatoes are very high in potassium but you can remove part of the potassium by using one of these methods:
- Double cook method: Peel and dice potatoes. Place in a large pot of water and bring to a boil. Drain the water and add fresh water to the pot. Bring to a boil, cook for 10 minutes then drain and set aside.
- Leaching method: Peel and dice potatoes. Place in a large pot of warm tap water and soak for 2 to 4 hours. Drain and set aside.
- If you are not on a potassium restricted diet you can skip the above step.
