Hi is this cooked with the lid on or off the pot? Just cooked it with lid on and there is a LOT of liquid and the vegies are mushy.

Hi Rhonda,
you can do either. I start with the lid on then the last say 3/4hr or so I take the lid off to brown up, and also reduce the liquid that had created.
I did cut the vegies quite chunky.
