• When removing the Glass Lid (2), tilt it so that the
o
pening faces away from you to avoid being burnt
by the released steam.
• The Handle (1), Glass Lid (2), Cooking Pot (3) and
Base Unit
(5) all become hot during cooking.
Always use oven gloves when handling ANY
part of the Slow Cooker during cooking.
Most foods are suited to slow cooking methods,
however there are a few guidelines that need to
be followed:
• Ensure all frozen ingredients are thoroughly
thawed prior to cooking.
• Cut root vegetables into small, even pieces, as
they take longer to cook than meat. Ensure that
root vegetables are always placed at the bottom
of the Cooking Pot
(3) and all ingredients are
immersed in the cooking liquid.
• Trim all excess fat from meat before cooking as
the slow cooking method does not allow fat to
evaporate.
• If adapting an existing recipe from conventional
cooking, you may need to reduce the amount of
liquid used. Liquid will not evaporate from your
Slow Cooker to the same extent as conventional
cooking.
• Never leave uncooked food at room temperature
in your Slow Cooker.
• Uncooked kidney beans must be soaked
overnight and boiled for at least 10 minutes to
remove toxins before use in a Slow Cooker.
• WARNING: Do not use your Slow Cooker to
reheat any food.
• Y
our Slow Cooker must be at least half full for
best results.
• S
low cooking retains moisture. If you wish to
reduce liquid, remove the lid after cooking and
t
urn the control to High. Reduce the moisture by
simmering for 30 to 45 minutes.
• If cooking soups, leave 20mm gap from the rim of
t
he Cooking Pot
(
3)
t
o allow for simmering.
• Removing the Glass Lid (2) will allow heat to
escape, reducing the efficiency of your Slow
Cooker and increasing the cooking time. If you
remove the lid to stir or add ingredients, you will
need to allow 10-15 minutes extra cooking time
for each time you remove the Glass Lid
(2).
• Many things can affect how quickly a recipe will
cook, including water and fat content, initial
temperature of the food and the size of the food.
Check food is properly cooked before serving.
• Many recipes will take several hours to cook. If
you don’t have time to prepare food in the
morning, prepare it the night before, storing the
food in a covered container in the fridge. Transfer
the food to the Cooking Pot
(3) and add boiling
liquid/stock. In most of the recipes in this book,
meat is browned by searing in a pan to improve
appearance and flavour.
• Most meat and vegetable recipes require 8-10
hours on the Low setting, Medium Setting 6-8
hours and 4-6 hours on the High setting.
• Some ingredients are not suitable for slow
cooking. Pasta, seafood, milk and cream should
be added towards the end of the cooking time.
• Food cut into small pieces will cook quicker. A
degree of ‘trial and error’ will be required to fully
optimise the potential of your Slow Cooker.
• All food should be covered with a liquid, gravy or
sauce. In a separate pan or jug, prepare your
liquid, gravy or sauce and completely cover the
food in the Cooking Pot
(3).

•
Do not allow the pot to stand in water for a long
time (you can leave water in the pot to soak). There
is an area on the base of the ceramic pot that has
to remain unglazed for manufacturing purposes.
This unglazed area is porous, therefore will soak up
water, this should be avoided.
•
Due to normal wear and tear through the products
life, the outer surface may start appearing ‘crazed’,
this is when the glaze on the ceramic pot wears
and appears crackled.
• Do not pre-heat.
• Disconnect power cord from the mains and allow
y
our Slow Cooker to cool before cleaning.

These recipes have been developed and tested by Morphy Richards for use in your Slow
Cooker. The recommended cooking times are given for the following recipes as a guide, but
may vary depending on food type and personal preference.
For example if the recipe says cook for 6-8 hours on Medium and you require the cooking
time to be shorter, cook on High which will reduce the cooking time to 4-6 hours. To increase
the cooking time, choose Low which will increase the cooking time to 8-10 hours.
The recipes are based on the maximum working volume of your slow cooker (1.1L / 1¾ pints).
This allows a 20mm space between the top of the pot and the food.
