Rice Cooking

Measuring the ingredients -

Max capacity of the bowl

EN DE FR

The rice cooker itself determines the exact cooking time depending on the quantity of water and ingredients placed in the bowl (see cooking table below for a guide to times).

The graduated markings on the inside of the bowl are given in litres and cups, these are used for measuring the amount of water when cooking rice – Fig.11.

The plastic cup provided with your appliance is for measuring rice and the table states the quantity of rice required for the number of servings. 1 level measuring cup of rice weighs about 150 g.

For best results, we recommend using ordinary rice rather than "easy cook" type rice which tends to give a stickier rice and may adhere to the base.

To cook 1 cup of white rice (serves 2 small or 1 large portion), use 1 measuring cup of white rice and then add one and a half measuring cup of water. With some types of rice it is normal for a little rice to stick on the base when cooking 1 cup of rice. For best results cook 2 or more cups of rice.

The maximum quantity of water + rice should not exceed the 10 cup mark inside the bowl – Fig.11.

The cooking times given in the tables are only approximate and for your guidance.

Place the appliance on a flat, stable, heat-resistant work surface away from water splashes and any other sources of heat.

Measure the rice using the plastic measuring cup provided and rinse thoroughly in cold water before cooking.

Pour the rice into the bowl. Then fill with cold water up to the corresponding "CUP" mark printed in the bowl (See cooking guide below) – Fig.12.

Close the lid.
Note: Always add the rice first otherwise you will have too much water.
