•All food should be covered with a liquid, gravy or sauce. In a separate pan or jug, prepare your liquid, gravy or sauce and completely cover the food in the Cooking Pot (3).

•When cooking joints of meat, ham, poultry etc, the size and shape of the joint is important. Try to keep the joint in the lower 2/3 of the pot. If necessary, cut into two pieces. Joint weight should be kept within the maximum limit of 2kg.

•For ham and brisket fill with hot water to just cover the joint. For beef, pork or poultry cover to 1/3 depth.
