Cooking Menus

The Sous Chef

 Stir MultiCooker has 6 

cooking menus.

Slow Cook

Use to cook tender, flavour filled meals 
cooked over a  longer period of time.

LOW Setting. This is suitable for simmering 
and slow cooking. 

HIGH Setting. This is for faster cooking. 
Typically 1 hour on HIGH = approximately  
2 - 2.5 hours on LOW.

Casserole

Use to cook casseroles and stews at a gentle 
heat over a longer period of time to develop 
flavours while the stir arm rotates the 
ingredients.

Sauté

Use to sauté vegetables and brown small 
batches of meat. The stir arm rotates the 
food during cooking to ensure even browning. 
Use to cook ingredients before using other 
cooking modes such as Casserole, Risotto or 
Slow Cook.

Boil

Use when cooking soups, boiling pasta and 
cooking vegetables. When using to boil water 
the Sous Chef has a 3L capacity.

Rice

Use to cook rice, cous cous, quinoa and 
other grains. It has a 10 cup capacity and 
will automatically switch to Keep Warm mode 
once cooked. Refer to page 15 for cooking 
instructions.

Risotto

Use to cook all types of risotto. The stir arm 
gently stirs the ingredients during cooking to 
create a creamy consistency.  

AUTO KEEP WARM Setting.

 

When cooking time is completed, the Sous 
Chef

 automatically switches to the Keep 

Warm setting to prevent overcooking and to 
keep your cooked food warm until serving. 
This setting is not hot enough to cook and 
is used to keep hot, cooked food warm 
for serving. The Keep Warm setting is an 
automatic function. For safety it can not be 
manually set to cook or warm up food.
