C FILLING
15 Fill the bowl with the amount of rice required.
16 Add the required amount of water – generally, use 1 cup of water for each cup of rice.
17 Don't fill above the top of the fill mark.
C COOKING
18 Give the bowl quarter of a turn each way, to ensure the bottom of the bowl makes good
contact with the element.
19 Put the lid on the bowl.
20 Put the plug into the power socket. The N light will glow.
21 Move the control to P. The N light will go off.
22 When the rice is cooked, the control will move to N, the P light will go off, and the N light will
glow.
23 Let the rice rest for about 10 minutes, then unplug the cooker.
24 Put on the oven gloves.
25 Steam and hot air will escape when you lift the lid. Tilt it slightly to direct the steam away
from you.
26 Lift out the bowl and set it down on a heat-resistant mat or dinner plate.
27 Use the spatula to turn and mix the rice, to let all the steam escape.
28 Sometimes the layer of rice in contact with the bowl will form a crust.
29 Some people regard the crust as a treat.
30 If you don't want it you can remove it with the spatula, after you've served the rice.
C ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS
31 If you add any additional ingredients (raisins, fruit, nuts, etc.), you should reduce the amount
of rice to compensate for the amount of water they'll absorb.
32 Raisins and dried fruit will absorb as much water as rice, so put them into the measuring cup
along with the rice.
33 Nuts won't generally absorb much water, so you can normally add them after you've
measured the rice.
C USING THE COOKER AS A STEAMER
34 Add the required amount of water – Use method 1 or 2 above.
35 Put the basket on top of the bowl and put the food into the basket.
36 For uniform cooking, cut all pieces of food to roughly the same size.
37 For peas, or anything that'll break up or drop into the water, make a parcel with aluminium
foil.
38 Take care when removing the parcel – wear oven gloves and use plastic tongs/spoons.
39 Put the lid on top of the basket.
40 Operate the cooker the same way you would when cooking rice.
41 Follow the steaming times.
42 Don't leave food in the cooker after steaming – it'll go soggy.
t TAKE NOTES
43 Note the type and quantity of food and the amount of water. Next time, adjust the amount of
water and let the cooker look after the timing.
C PLUNGER
44 The plunger will prevent the element working unless the bowl is in place.
C FINISHED?
45 Unplug the appliance.
