Mode Settings

The SecretChef has two cooking modes, Slow Cook or Browning.

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.

It requires minimal supervision, short preparation times and quick clean up times.

The Slow Cook mode has three convenient heat settings – LOW, HIGH and WARM. Scroll through the settings available by pressing the SLOW COOK button.

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.

KEEP WARM Setting. When cooking time is completed, the SecretChef 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 should only be used to keep hot, cooked food warm for serving.

Browning

The Browning or Frypan mode has five heat settings 100°C, 120°C, 150°C, 180°C and ‘Sear’, making the SecretChef an ideal everyday multifunctional cooker. On the browning mode you can change the heat setting depending on the food that you are cooking, and your style of cooking. Use it to boil, 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.

Scroll through the heat settings available by pressing the BROWN button.
