BAKE
Using the bake function you can make cakes, as well as creamy rice desserts, cheese cakes and
puddings. Desserts can be cooked in a round cake tin, pudding bowl or individual ramekins. The
cake tin, pudding bowl or ramekins will need to be double wrapped in foil for cooking in the multi
cooker.
Note: Prior to adding ingredients, ensure that the cake tin ts in the cooking pot.
Add water in the cooking pot along with the trivet, then place your cake tin or ramekins on top of
the trivet. For most steamed puddings, water will need to come ¾ way up the side of the cake tin
or pan, or ramekin.
Be careful when taking out the cake tin or pan from the multi cooker, perhaps by making a ‘foil
strap’ to help you lift the vessel out without burning yourself. Take a length of 50cm foil and fold it
long ways to form a 6cm wide strap. Place this under the cooking vessel for you to lower it onto the
trivet - you can use this to lift it out. See the recipe section of this manual to get you started.
SOUP/CURRY
Using the soup/curry function you can create delicious soups and curries in minutes. It will also
give you an intensely rich stock for soups, sauces and gravies. If you are adapting a favourite
soup or curry recipe for the multi cooker, just remember to halve the amount of liquid. See the
recipe guide in the back of this instruction booklet for some recipes to get you started.
IMPORTANT: After making soup, curry or stock, allow at least 15 minutes before releasing
pressure to ensure the hot liquid inside will not boil over.
Note: If your recipe includes pasta as an ingredient, cook it separately then add it to your soup
when it has nished cooking. Pasta should not be cooked in the multi cooker as it creates foam
that can block the multi cooker exhaust valve and red oat valve.
3 FUNCTIONS WITHOUT PRESSURE
SAUTÉ
This function cooks at a medium-high heat, similar to stove top cooking, and will heat the cooking
pot quickly. This helps browning meat and/or caramelising ingredients for casseroles and slow
cooking, as well as toasting rice for risotto.
The maximum setting time is 20 minutes. If your recipe requires sautéing or simmering for longer,
simply press KEEP WARM/CANCEL and press SAUTÉ again which will cook for another cycle of
20 minutes.
Ingredients will not brown or caramelise unless you use the Sauté function rst. To caramelise,
brown or sauté ingredients prior to pressure cooking, simply select the SAUTÉ function. When
you have nished sautéing, press the KEEP WARM/CANCEL button.
You can then select the desired cooking function. Refer to the GENERAL FUNCTIONS Section
on page 9.
See the recipe guide in the back of this instruction booklet for some recipes to get you started.
IMPORTANT:
• Do not place the cooking pot directly on a stove top. The cooking pot must only be
used with this multi cooker.
• Do not place the lid on when using the Sauté function. If you do so, the multi cooker
will beep repeatedly until the lid is removed.
