COOKING TECHNIQUES

It is recommended during slow cooking to place the Glass Lid on to retain heat. During the cooking process the curry or casserole will boil then turn off. This is normal operating for a Temperature Probe controlled unit.

Recommended cuts FOR slow cooking (braising)

BEEF

Diced blade (boneless), chuck, round, shin, silverside

CHICKEN

Diced thigh, leg

LAMB

Diced forequarter, shanks and neck chops

VEAL

Diced forequarter, leg and knuckle (Osso Bucco)

PORK

Slow cooking tips

Cut meat into 1 inch (2.5 cm) cubes. Trim any visible fat.

Use a medium to low heat setting.

Cook for approx 1½ - 2 hours, stirring occasionally with the lid on.

Add soft or quick cooking vegetables such as mushrooms, tomatoes, beans or corn in the last half hour of cooking.

Thicken towards end of cooking by stirring a little cornstarch blended with water, or plain flour blended with margarine or butter. Alternatively, coat meat in plain flour before frying (extra oil may be needed).

Preparation techniques

The success of any dish depends on careful forethought and preparation. To achieve an authentic Asian appearance and even cooking results, food should be cut into small, even pieces. This allows food to cook quickly and to be easily picked up with chopsticks.

Slicing

A straight slice is used for cutting meats and vegetables. Slices should be of an even thickness. Partially frozen meat will slice more evenly. Slice meat very thinly, across the grain to obtain a more tender result.

Matchstick or julienne

First slice the vegetables as described above. Then, stack slices and cut again into thin or thick sticks depending on the recipe.
