Chopping
Ingredients
Use Processing Blade
Procedure
Onions, Vegetables, Fruits
and Cooked Meats
Raw Meats (Boneless)
Herbs
Breadcrumbs or
Biscuit
Nuts (Shells Removed)
Hard Cheeses
Hard Boiled Eggs
Cut ingredients into approximately 2.5cm cubes.
Place in processor bowl, up to 750g at a time.
Process, using the ‘PULSE’ setting until the ingredients
are chopped as desired. Remove lid and scrape
the sides down with the spatula between pulses to
ensure more even chopping.
Trim the meat of fat and gristle, remove any
bones. Cut into 2.5cm cubes. Process up to
750g at a time, scraping down the sides of the
processor bowl, until the meat is coarse or fine
as desired.
Make sure the herbs are as dry as possible. Place
in the processor bowl and process until finely
chopped. Scrape down the sides of the processor
bowll at least once during processing. Up to 4 cups
of firmly packed herbs can be processed at a time.
Quarter the slices of bread and break up the
biscuits. Place them in the processor bowl. Process
up to 1½ loaves of bread, crusts removed, or 1
loaf with crusts, at a time. Use stale bread for dry
breadcrumbs.
Place up to 2 cups of nuts in the processor bowl
at a time and process using the ‘PULSE’ setting.
If chopped too finely the nuts will become oily
and eventually form a butter. Processing smaller
quantities at one time will ensure even chopping.
To process hard cheese such as Parmesan, first cut
the cheese into 2cm cubes. Drop cubes of cheese
down the feed chute, processing 200g at a time.
Shell and halve the eggs before placing in the
processor bowl. Process using the ‘PULSE’ setting.
