Heavy loads of meat may stall the motor. This is indicated by the blade turning slowly and the meat only moving slowly around the bowl and not processing. If this occurs remove the meat and process in two batches.
Garlic, chilli and ginger
For garlic, peel cloves and leave whole. For chilli, leave whole (remove seeds for milder chilli). For ginger, peel and cut into 2.5cm cubes. Process until chopped to desired consistency. Store chopped garlic or chilli mixed with a little oil in an airtight container in refrigerator for up to 1 week. Mix ginger with a little sherry. If adding garlic, chilli or ginger to other ingredients, drop whole pieces down feed chute while the motor is running.
