SAUTÉ
The SAUTÉ function cooks at a medium-high heat similar to stove top cooking. This function
will heat the cooking pot quickly and is useful for cooking stir-frys, as well as browning or
caramelising ingredients prior to slow cooking, casseroling or roasting. The temperature can
be set from 130°C to 210°C. Use 200°C for browning and caramelising, and cook stir-frys at
180°C.See the recipe guide in the back of this instruction booklet for some recipes to get you
started.
IMPORTANT:
• Do not place the cooking pot directly on a stove top. The cooking pot must only be
used with this multi cooker.
• Do not place the lid on when using the Sauté function.
