To thicken juices or make gravy at the end of the cooking cycle, make a smooth mixture of 2 to 4 tbsps. (30 – 60 ml) of cornstarch, 1/4 cup (60 ml) of water, and 2 tbsp. (30 ml) of butter. Remove cooked food from Casserole. Add the mixture to the juices remaining in the Casserole, set to High and stir until liquid thickens.
