After food is cooked, switch cooker off and leave covered with the
lid. There will be enough heat in the ceramic pot to keep warm for
approximately 30 minutes. If you require longer to keep warm switch
to the low setting.
•
All food may be covered with a liquid, gravy or sauce. In a separate
pan or jug prepare your liquid, gravy or sauce and completely cover
the food in the ceramic pot.
•
Pre-browning meat and onions in a pan to seal in the juices also
reduces the fat content before adding to the ceramic pot. This
improves the flavour but is not necessary if time is limited.
•
When cooking joints of meat, ham, and poultry etc. the size and
shape of the joint is important. Try to keep the joint in the lower 2/3
of the pot and fully cover with water. If necessary, cut in two pieces.
Joint weight should be kept within the maximum limit.
