Slow Cooking

Slow Cooking achieves flavour filled meals and tender moist meats cooked to perfection. As the name suggests, meals are cooked over a long period of time. Slow cooking provides healthy, simple and economical cooking.

LOW Setting. This is suitable for simmering and slow cooking.

HIGH Setting. This is for faster cooking. Typically 1 hour on HIGH = approximately 2 - 2.5 hours on LOW.

AUTO KEEP WARM Setting. When cooking time is completed, the VersaCook automatically switches to the Keep Warm setting to prevent overcooking and to keep your cooked food warm until serving - perfect for busy families, those on the run and those who need flexible meal times. This setting is not hot enough to cook and is used to keep hot, cooked food warm for serving. The Keep Warm setting is an automatic function. for safety it can not be manually set to cook or warm up food.

When used as a Slow Cooker, the VersaCook has a capacity of 6.5L.

Cooking (Saucepan and Food Steamer)

The Cook menu can be used when cooking soups, boiling pasta and when steaming food. It can also cook rice dishes and be used for dry roasting. Cook is an all-round cooking menu and can be used to cook various foods. There are two heat settings, LOW and HIGH. When using as a Food Steamer, use HIGH only.

Browning

The Brown or Frypan menu has five heat settings 130°C, 150°C, 170°C, 190°C and 210°C, making the VersaCook an ideal everyday multifunctional cooker. On the Brown menu you can change the heat setting depending on the food that you are cooking and your style of cooking. Use it to shallow fry, stir fry, sauté and of course even sear. Browning meat prior to slow cooking not only gives your food great colour, it also seals in the juices and flavours and keeps the meat tender.
