Selecting the power level
Table
The figures in the following table are intended as a
guide only. The power level required for the cooking
process depends on the quality of the pot and on the
type and quantity of food being cooked.
In order to avoid the fat or juices from meat burning a
small amount of liquid may be added to frying pan/sau-
cepan.
During frying the food should be turned frequently.
If large quantities of meat or fish are being cooked, e.g.
1kg these should be cooked in the oven.
