Cooking Guidelines
Cooking Tips
•When food comes to the boil, reduce the powersetting.
•Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the
heat.
•minimize the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.
•Start cooking on a high setting and reduce the setting when the food
has heated through.
Simmering, cooking rice
•Simmering occurs below boiling point, at around 85˚C, when
bubbles are just rising occasionally to the surface of the cooking
liquid. It is the key to delicious soups and tender stews because
the flavours develop without overcooking the food. You should
also cook egg-based and flourthickened sauces below boiling point.
•Some tasks, including cooking rice by the absorption method, may
require a setting higher than the lowest setting to ensure the food
is cooked properly in the time recommended.
16
Searing steak
To cook juicy flavoursome steaks:
1. Stand the meat at room temperature for about 20 minutes before
cooking.
2. Heat up a heavy-based frying pan.
3. Brush both sides of the steak with oil. Drizzle a small amount of
oil into the hot pan and then lower the meat onto the hot pan.
4. Turn the steak only once during cooking. The exact cooking time
will depend on the thickness of the steak and how cooked you
want it. Times may vary from about 2 – 8 minutes per side. Press
the steak to gauge how cooked it is – the firmer it feels the more
‘well done’ it will be.
5. Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to
allow it to relax and become tender before serving.
For stir-frying
1. Choose an ceramic compatible flat-based wok or a large frying pan.
2. Have all the ingredients and equipment ready. Stir-frying
should be quick. If cooking large quantities, cook the food in
several smaller batches.
3. Preheat the pan briefly and add two tablespoons of oil.
4. Cook any meat first, put it aside and keep warm.
5. Stir-fry the vegetables. When they are hot but still crisp, turn the
cooking zone to a lower setting, return the meat to the pan and
add your sauce.
6. Stir the ingredients gently to make sure they are heated through.
7. Serve immediately.
