Once food is seared or browned as required, add other ingredients and stir though. Using oven mitts
grasp both handles and carefully place the cooking pot back into the slow cooker.
GRAV Y/SAUCE
Slow cooking retains more of the juices than normal cooking. This tends to increase the volume of cooking
liquid, and thin the sauce or gravy. To allow for this, sauces should initially be thicker than normal.
Anything to be sautéed could be tossed in seasoned flour beforehand, to thicken the gravy/sauce.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
1. Unplug the slow cooker (switch the socket off first, if its switchable).
2. Using oven gloves, remove the lid and the cooking pot and put them on a heatproof surface.
3. If you don’t intend to wash up right away, fill the cooking pot with warm water, otherwise residual
heat may bake food debris on to the cooking pot, making its eventual removal more difficult.
4. Wash the lid and cooking pot in hot soapy water, using a cloth or sponge, then rinse and dry
thoroughly. Don’t use scouring pads.
5. All other surfaces, internal and external, should be wiped with a damp cloth. You may use a little
washing-up liquid, if necessary.
6. Dry all surfaces thoroughly before re-using the slow cooker or storing it away.
7. You may wash the cooking pot and lid in a dishwasher, but the harsh environment inside the
dishwasher may affect the surface finishes.
Any damage should be cosmetic, and should not affect the functionality of the cooker.
Don’t immerse the body of the slow cooker in water or any other liquid.
Don’t put the body of the slow cooker in a dishwasher.
Don’t use harsh or abrasive cleaners or solvents.
