• Use the blunt edge for grinding coffee beans and spices, and for chopping hard food such as
peppercorns, seeds, chocolate and nuts.
ATTENTION:
Do not overload the work bowl. Overloading causes inconsistent results and strains
the motor. After being processed, food should not reach more than 2/3 of the way up the central
plastic stem of the blade assembly.
N.B.
Please note that although the air capacity of the Cordless Mini Prep Pro is 900ml the following
maximum fill capacities apply for optimum use of the product:
700ml - mixture capacity
400ml - thin liquid capacity
A. CHOPPING FRESH HERBS
The herbs, work bowl and blade must all be thoroughly cleaned and dried. Remove the stems
from herbs. Add the leaves to work bowl and process, using the ‘CHOP’ switch and a ‘pulse’ action
until they are chopped to the desired consistency.
B. CHOPPING MEAT, POULTRY, FISH & SHELLFISH
The food should be very cold but not frozen. Cut into 1.5cm pieces and place in the work bowl.
Use the ‘CHOP’ switch and a ‘pulse’ action until the food is evenly chopped. Use a continuous
processing action for a few seconds for a finer chop if required. Use a spatula to scrape food down
from the sides of the work bowl as necessary.
C. CHOPPING NUTS
You can use either the ‘CHOP’ or ‘GRIND’ function depending on the consistency you require. For
roughly chopped nuts, process continuously using the ‘CHOP’ switch until chopped to the desired
consistency. Check frequently to avoid nuts clumping together. If necessary, use a spatula to re-
distribute the nuts evenly in the work bowl. If you require more of a powder consistency use the
‘GRIND’ function continuously until the desired consistency is achieved.
D. PRODUCING A PURÉE
Cut the food into 1.5cm pieces and place in the work bowl. Use the ‘CHOP’ switch and a ‘pulse’
action to chop coarsely, then process continuously until food is puréed.
N.B.
Cooked potatoes are an exception to this procedure They develop a gluey texture when
processed with the metal blade.
E. GRINDING COFFEE BEANS AND HARD FOODS
Add coffee or hard food to the work bowl. Use the ‘GRIND’ switch and process using a continuous
action until desired consistency is reached. Coffee beans may take slightly longer to process, so
use a pulse action every 10 seconds or so to allow the beans to drop to the bottom of the work
bowl.
F. ADDING LIQUID
You can add liquids such as water, oil or flavouring while the appliance is running. Pour the liquid
through one of the two openings in the lid.
N.B.
Add liquid through only one opening at a time. The other opening must be left free for air
to circulate.
