Cooking Guides

Hints and Tips:

All cooking guides and recipe times are to be used as an indication only, as the freshness, size, and cuts etc. of vegetables and meats used will vary the cooking times

Read recipes over once before starting to cook

Have all ingredients at hand before cooking commences

Cooking times in the following recipes serve as a guide only.The quality of the meat, freshness and ripeness of the vegetables, the size and the starting temperature of foods could cause the time to vary.

Foods, which overcook easily, should be removed form the Combi-Steamer/Frypan as cooking is finished.

Try to dry meat, poultry or vegetables before adding to hot oil to prevent unnecessary spattering.

Be sure the water is boiling before food is added for steaming and always replenish with boiling water during steaming.

Season food after steaming for greater nutrient retention.

Adjust temperature control probe setting up or down as needed for desired cooking.

The thermostatically controlled Combi- Steamer/Frypan makes it ideal for cooking a wide variety of foods, as the recipes in this book demonstrate. By simply adjusting the temperature control you are assured of perfect results every time.

Shallow frying

Recommended temperature control setting: 6 – 8 Less oil is used (about 1.5cm) for shallow frying and the food is usually cooked at a lower temperature so that a delicious brown crust forms on the underside.The food is then turned over and the process is repeated.

Pan-Frying

Recommended temperature control setting: 4 – 6

Little or no fat is used, depending on the fat content of the food.When frying, it is important not to crowd the pan: food will then stew rather than brown

Roasting

Recommended temperature control setting: 10 & 3

The meat is first browned in a little fat or oil on No. 10,then roasted using the steaming rack, (roasting position) with the temperature control probe on No. 3 and the lid on.The roast then needs to be and basted occasionally.

Boiling

Recommended temperature control setting: 4

Boiling can be a very nutritious way of serving fresh vegetables if it is done properly. Always have the water boiling and add some salt before adding the vegetables. In order that heat penetrates quickly, boil the vegetables in small batches. Use the liquid after boiling for soups or gravies.

Poaching/Bain Maire

Recommended temperature control setting: 4

Both methods are especially good for foods requiring gentle heat, for instance eggs, quenelles and custards. In poaching, food is in direct contact with simmering liquid (water, stock, milk, etc) and in bain marie, the food is placed in a heat resistant dish and then partially immersed
