PREPARATION
1. Sit the appliance on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface, near a power socket.
2. Don’t use the appliance near or below curtains, shelves, cupboards, or anything else likely
to be damaged by the escaping steam.
3. Have oven gloves (or a cloth) to hand, and a heat-resistant mat or dinner plate to put the
bowl on after cooking.
4. Put the bowl inside the cooker.
COOKING
1. Use the measuring cup to put the rice into the bowl.
2. Fill the bowl with water up to the number corresponding to the number of cups of rice
used.
3. Give the bowl quarter of a turn each way, to ensure the bottom of the bowl makes good
contact with the element.
4. Put the lid on the bowl.
5. Put the plug into the power socket. Move the on/o switch to position I.Move the switch to
the N position. The N light will glow.
6. Move the switch to P. The N light will go o.
7. When the rice is cooked, the switch will move to N, the P light will go o, and the N light will
come on.
8. Let the rice rest for about 10 minutes, then unplug the cooker.
9. Put on the oven gloves.
10. Steam and hot air will escape when you lift the lid. Tilt it slightly to direct the steam away
from you.
11. Lift out the bowl and set it down on a heat-resistant mat or dinner plate.
12. Use the spatula to turn and mix the rice, to let all the steam escape.
Sometimes the layer of rice in contact with the bowl will form a crust.
If you don’t want it you can remove it with the spatula, after you’ve served the rice.
ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS
If you add any additional ingredients (raisins, fruit, nuts, etc.), you should reduce the
amount of rice to compensate for the amount of water they’ll absorb.
Raisins and dried fruit will absorb as much water as rice, so put them into the measuring
cup along with the rice.
Nuts won’t generally absorb much water, so you can normally add them after you’ve
measured the rice.
USING THE COOKER AS A STEAMER
Don’t worry too much about overcooking – steaming is a relatively gentle cooking method
and a few minutes extra generally won’t matter.
Don’t overcook sh.
1. Add the required amount of water – Use method 1 or 2 above.
2. Put the basket on top of the bowl and put the food into the basket.
3. For uniform cooking, cut all pieces of food to roughly the same size.
4. For peas, or anything that’ll break up or drop into the water, make a parcel with aluminium
foil
5. Take care when removing the parcel – wear oven gloves and use plastic tongs/spoons.
6. Put the lid on top of the basket.
