Use

You can poach up to 3 eggs or hard cook or soft cook up to 7 eggs.

If you are not using the egg cooker to poach eggs, remove the egg poacher from the unit.

Add the required amount of water to the egg cooker base using the guide moulded into the measuring cup. These amounts are approximate and can be varied to suit individual preferences.

To poach eggs

Place the egg cooker on a dry level surface. Use the medium cooked water level markings on the measuring cup to determine the amount of water to use, for 1

poached egg fill the water to the 7 mark, for 2 poached eggs fill the water to the 6 mark and for 3 poached eggs fill to the 5 mark.

Note: The more eggs cooked the more water is required.

With the unit switched off, pour the recommended amount of cold water into the top of the egg cooker base.

Lightly butter or oil the poaching cups to be used – this will help prevent the eggs from sticking to the poaching pan.

Place the poaching pan onto the top of the cooking rack. Break the eggs into the poaching cups.

Add the clear cover to the egg cooker and plug the appliance into a suitable power supply. Switch the unit on. A light will illuminate in the switch.

The water in the base will heat up quickly and start to produce steam.

Warning: steam will escape from the steam release hole in the

cover during use.

An audible alert will sound when the eggs are ready – this will be after approximately 5-8 minutes. Switch the unit off and remove the plug from the electrical supply.

Be careful when removing the cover as steam will escape.

Using oven gloves or other suitable protection remove the poaching pan from the unit and remove the eggs. Use wooden or plastic utensils to remove the eggs so as not to damage the non-stick coating.

Allow the egg cooker to cool completely before discarding any remaining water from the egg cooker and before cleaning the unit.
