COOKING GUIDELINES

IMPORTANT!

Take care when frying: oil and fat heat up very quickly, particularly if you’re using

PowerBoost. At extremely high termperatures oil and fat will ignite spontaneously

and this presents a serious fire risk.

Cooking tips

y When food comes to the boil, reduce the temperature setting.

y Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the heat.

y Minimize the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.

y Start cooking on a high setting and reduce the setting when the food has heated

through.

Simmering, cooking rice

y Simmering occurs below boiling point, at around 185

F / 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 flour-thickened sauces below boiling point.

y 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.

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

y When stir-frying be careful to lift the pan clear of the surface if tossing the

ingredients. Sliding the pan across the cooktop surface may scratch it.

1 Choose an induction 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.
