6. Cooking Options (See Fig. 5)
There are five available cooking options with your Safari Chef appliance. These are:
?
Barbecuing:
This cooking option is ideal for fat-free barbecuing of chicken, sausages, chops, kebabs, fish or
vegetables. For this type of cooking, use the BBQ option. Place the Bottom deflector plate (E) concentrically onto the
outer ring of the Potstand (H) ensuring that it is properly seated. Place the Top Deflector Plate (D) on the Bottom
Deflector Plate (E) and then place the Wire Grid (B) in the recess on the inside rim of the Bottom Deflector Plate (E).
Caution:
Please note that when cooking fatty meats some fat will drip onto the unit which may cause flare-ups. Please
use caution when handling such meats. The cooking temperatures are easily adjusted to suit your own requirements by
turning the Valve Knob (N) to regulate the degree of heat.
?
Grilling:
This cooking option is best suited for sumptuous cuts of meat, chicken, fish or vegetables. Meat cooked in this
manner will have the blackened lines as on professionally grilled steaks. For this type of cooking, use the Mini BBQ
option (as above) but with the Wire Grid (B) and the Top deflector Plate (D) removed. Place the non-stick Reversible
Grill Plate (A), with the ribbed side of the Grill Plate face up, securely in the recess in the Bottom Deflector Plate (E).
For optimum results, turn the grill to medium heat by adjusting the gas flow. The non-stick surface allows for healthier
cooking using less fat. Cook only for a few minutes per side. Adjust the cooking time and temperature depending on
personal preferences for rare, medium or well done.
?
Frying:
This option is ideal for stir-fries, fish, breakfast, pancakes, prawns and vegetables. For this type of cooking,
use the same setup as described for the Grilling option but with the non-stick Reversible Grill Plate (A) reversed so
that the flat surface is face up. Please note that being a shallow pan, it is not suitable for deep-frying. The easy clean
surface encourages the minimum use of fat for healthy cooking.
?
Boiling:
For this type of cooking, use the Body (F) with the Pot Stand (H). Place a suitable pot (not less than 150mm
diameter and not more than 230mm diameter) or the Safari Chef Dome (C) on the Pot Stand (H). One liter of water will
boil in approximately 6 minutes depending on the conditions, size of pot used, etc. Note: When using small sized pots
do not attempt to use pots with plastic handles.
?
Oven Dome / Wok: The dome can be used as a wok, a lid to create an oven on the BBQ, or a saucepan
?
For wok-style cooking, place the Wok (C1) directly onto the Pot stand (H) and use to prepare stir-fries, pasta dishes or
paella.
?
To use the Dome as an Oven lid place the Lid (C1) over a meal cooking on the BBQ option for convection style
cooking. This is ideal for roasting chicken, lamp, beef or pork.
?
The Dome can also be used as a saucepan, to heat sauces, marinades, boil water, cook rice, pasta etc. Place the
saucepan (C1) directly onto the Pot Stand (H)
