Tips for Stew / Slow Cook

The STEW program cooks on a high heat for 1- 4 hours whereas the SLOW COOK program cooks on a gentle heat for 5 – 10 hours. The SLOW COOK program is a great way to cook less-expensive cuts of meat such as stewing beef, which are tenderised through the long cooking process. Certain less-expensive cuts of meat may not therefore be suitable for the STEW program.

Make sure all frozen ingredients are well thawed out.

Cut root vegetables into small even pieces, as they take longer to cook than meat. They should be sautéed for 2-3 mins before slow cooking. Ensure that root vegetables are always placed at the bottom of the bowl and all ingredients are immersed in the cooking liquid.

Trim all excess fat from meat before cooking to prevent grease gathering in the bowl.

If adapting an existing recipe from conventional cooking, you may need to cut down the amount of liquid used. Liquid will not evaporate to the same extent as with conventional cooking.

Uncooked red kidney beans must be soaked and boiled for at least 10 minutes to remove toxins before use in a slow cooker.

Insert a meat thermometer into joints of roasts or hams to ensure they are cooked to the desired temperature.

Reheat

Press the MENU button until the dot appears next to REHEAT. A default time of 25 mins will appear N.

To adjust, press the COOK TIME button and then the MINUTE button. The minimum time that can be set is 8 mins and the maximum is 25 mins O.

Ensure food is thoroughly heated through before consuming.

Keep Warm

The KEEP WARM program will start automatically after cooking has finished and will keep food warm for 2 hrs.

A red light will appear to indicate the KEEP WARM program is selected and the display will return to zero and will count up P.

P

Press the OFF / KEEP WARM button to stop the KEEP WARM program. The red light on the START button will flash to indicate the appliance is now in standby.

To resume the KEEP WARM program, press the OFF / KEEP WARM button again.

We suggest that if food is not consumed within these two hours, it should be discarded.
