Heating element surface
Using your slow
cooker
1 Follow the recipe and place
the ingredients into the
cooking pot.
2 Place the cooking pot into
the base unit.
3 Place the lid in position
4 Select the the High or Low
setting, then plug into the
power supply.
5 Allow to cook for the desired
time.
6 After cooking, switch off and
unplug the slow cooker.
The following times are a guide
only and will vary according to
the type of food being cooked
Low Setting will gradually cook
the food over approximately
8 hours. This setting can also
be used when cooking more
delicate foods which would
benefit from a slightly lower
rate of cooking such as baked
apples, poached fruit.
High Setting will quicken up the
cooking process compared to
the Low setting with cooking
times between 3 and 5 hours.
Auto Function
The Auto function can be set
for the food to be ready
8 -10hours later.
When the Auto function
is set the slow cooker will
start cooking on High power
until the food reaches the
cooking temperature. It then
automatically switched to
Low power and then maintain
a constant low cooking
temperature.
Hints on using your
slow cooker
1 Prepare and use ingredients
at room temperature
rather than straight from
the refrigerator. However
ingredients such as meat and
fish should not be left out of
the refrigerator for longer
than is necessary.
2 Cut root vegetables such
as carrots, onions, swedes
etc., into fairly small pieces
as they take longer to cook
than meat.
3 Cut each type of ingredient
into even sized pieces, this
will assist with even cooking.
4 Browning the meat and
sauteing the vegetables first
in a separate pan will help to
remove a certain amount of
fat from the meat and also
improve the appearance and
flavour of both meat and
vegetables. However this is
not essential.
5 Do not lift the lid more than
necessary during cooking
as this will cause loss of
heat and evaporation of
liquid. It may be necessary
depending upon how often
the lid is removed and for
how long, to allow an extra
6
20 - 30 minutes cooking time.
6 Cooking always takes place
in the cooking pot. Never
place food directly into the
base unit.
7 Never plunge the hot
cooking pot into cold water
immediately after use or
pour boiling water into an
empty cold cooking pot.
Subjecting it to a sudden
change in temperature could
cause it to crack.
8 After several months of use
the glaze on the cooking
pot may become crackled:
this is common with glazed
stoneware and will not affect
the efficiency of the slow
cooker.
9 If you are adapting recipes
from conventional cooking
you may need to reduce
the amount of liquid used.
In slow cooking liquid does
not evaporate as quickly as
with conventional cooking
although a certain amount
of liquid is necessary to help
the transfer of heat.
10 Never fill the slow cooker
more than 2/3 full.
11 Milk products, including
cream, sour cream and
yoghurt, should be added
towards the end of cooking
to help combat any curdling
that might take place.
12 Frozen vegetables such as
peas should be thawed and
added during the last half
hour of cooking. This will
ensure retention of colour
and texture in the vegetables
and temperature within the
pot.
13 Best results are achieved
when the ingredients are
covered in liquid.
14 Trim excess fat from meat.
15 Providing that you have
suitably sized heat proof
dishes, more than one dish
can be cooked in the slow
cooker at the same time eg
steak and kidney pudding,
carrots and fruit compote.
Cover the dishes with foil
sealing tightly and stand
them in hot water in the
cooking pot.
16 When cooking whole
joints make sure they fit
comfortably into the cooking
pot and always add liquid.
Turn part way through the
cooking process.
17 Using hot stock will speed
up the cooking process.
18 To thicken gravy, mix some
cornflour with a little cold
water to form a smooth
paste. Add the mixture to
the cooking pot towards
the end of the cooking
time. Cover and cook for
additional time until the
juices are bubbling and
thickened.
Care and cleaning
Always switch off, unplug and
allow the appliance to cool
before cleaning.
Base unit
Wipe the outside of the slow
cooker with a damp cloth and
then dry. Never immerse the
base unit in water.
Lid, cooking pot
Wash in warm soapy water,
rinse and then dry thoroughly.
Food that has stuck to the
inside of the bowl can be
removed with the aid of a soft
bristled brush.
The cooking pot and lid can be
washed in the dishwasher.
