To simmer and sauté
• In addition to its function as a fryer,
Versalio can be used to cook by other
methods. By resetting the thermostat,
you can cook in the same way as with
a frying removable bowl or sauté remo-
vable bowl.
• Simply note that when you lower the
thermostat setting, you must take into
account a small delay in the reduction
in temperature, due to the thickness of
the base of the removable bowl.
• You can cook with or without the lid, as
you wish.
• Without the lid, cooking times should
be increased slightly.
• In position 1, or on the “Keep hot” set-
ting, the fat may bubble for short per-
iods occasionally.
Preparation for cooking
• After putting the oil into the removable
bowl, unwind the cord completely and
plug in.
• Remove the lid
• Set the thermostat to the appropriate
setting for the food you wish to cook.
• If using oil, pre-heat in accordance with
instructions in the recipe book.
Important:
To use a lesser quantity of oil than that
corresponding to level 0.5, leave the ther-
mostat on setting 2 for at least 3 minutes,
then increase the temperature.
• Only use the basket when cooking with
a large amount of oil (at least level 1),
otherwise you risk damaging the ap-
pliance.
Choosing the correct cooking time
• During cooking, the indicator light goes
on and off. It only stays lit when the re-
movable bowl is being heated.
• Refer to the table below and to the re-
cipe book supplied with each appliance
for cooking times and temperatures.
These are, of course, given as an indi-
cation only: you can modify and adapt
them to suit your taste.
