HOW TO SLOW COOK
SEAR Setting
Searing in the multi cooker may take a little
extra time and whilst not strictly necessary,
the rewards are evident in the end result.
The cooking bowl keeps the heat stable
and uniform allowing the meat to brown
and form an even crust. Plus searing seals
in the moisture, intensifies the flavour and
provides more tender results.
1. Ensure exterior of the removable
cooking bowl is clean before placing it
in the housing (this will ensure proper
contact with the inner cooking surface).
2. Plug power cord into a 230V or 240V
power outlet. The START|CANCEL
button and RISOTTO button surround
will illuminate in white.
3. Press the SAUTÉ|SEAR button, the
button surround will illuminate white.
Press the START|CANCEL button to
activate the setting, the button surround
will illuminate red.
4. Cover with lid and allow to pre-heat
for approximately 2–3 minutes (do not
preheat for longer than 5 minutes).
5. Add oil/butter and allow to heat/melt for
approximately 1 minute with the lid on.
6. Always sear meat and poultry in small
batches. Cover with lid and cook,
stirring occasionally until food is evenly
browned. Remove from cooking bowl.
When finished searing, proceed to the
Slow Cook Settings section below.
Slow Cook Settings
The multi cooker has two slow cook settings:
Low and High. Use the recommended
guidelines below to determine cooking time
and heat settings and use recipes in this
instruction book. Dishes can be prepared
well in advance and cooking time regulated
so that food is ready to serve at a
convenient time.
A general rule of thumb for most slow
cooked meat and vegetable recipes is:
Setting Cooking Time
LOW: 6–7 hours
HIGH: 3–4 hours
Your favourite traditional recipes can also
be easily adapted to this slow cooker. Simply
halve the amount of liquid and increase the
cooking time.
NOTE
These cooking times are approximates
only and times can vary depending
on ingredients, quantities in recipes
and whether the cooking bowl and its
ingredients are hot from searing.
As a guide meats such as chicken or small
pieces of meat will have best results when
cooked on high for 3–4 hours.
Larger pieces of meat such as lamb shanks
will have best results when cooked on low
for 6–7 hours.
Cooking Times (with Searing)
When the SAUTÉ|SEAR setting is used
prior to slow cooking, cooking times will
be shortened slightly. Check for doneness
intermittently during cooking.
