Hints
Knife blade
- Cut food such as meat, bread, vegetables into cubes
approximately 2cm/3/4 in before processing.
- Biscuits should be broken into pieces and added down the
feed tube while the machine is running.
- When making pastry use butter straight from the fridge cut
into 2cm/3/4 in cubes.
- Take care not to over-process.
Dough tool
- Place the dry ingredients in the bowl and add the liquid
down the feed tube while the machine is running. Process
until a smooth elastic ball of dough is formed this will take
60 secs.
- Re-knead by hand only. Re-kneading in the bowl is not
recommended as it may cause the processor to become
unstable.
(N) Twin beater geared whisk (optional)
Use for light mixtures only e.g. egg whites, cream, evaporated
milk and for whisking eggs and sugar for sponge cakes.
Heavier mixtures with butter and flour will damage it.
Using the whisk
1 Fit the drive shaft and bowl onto the power unit.
2 Push each beater securely into the drive head.
3 Fit the whisk by carefully turning until it drops over the
drive shaft.
4 Add the ingredients.
5 Fit the lid - ensuring the end of the shaft locates into the
center of the lid.
6 Switch on.
Important
- The whisk is not suitable for making cakes or creaming
butter and sugar as these mixes will damage it. Always use
the knife blade for cake making.
Hints
- Best results are obtained when the eggs are at room tem-
perature.
- Ensure the bowl and whisks are clean and free from grease
before whisking.
Slicing/shredding discs
To use the discs.
reversible slicing/shredding discs - thick (O) / thin (P)
Use the shredding side for cheese, carrots, potatoes and
foods of a similar texture. Use the slicing side for cheese,
carrots, potatoes, cabbage, cucumber, courgette, beetroot
and onions.
rasping disc (Q)
Grates Parmesan cheese and potatoes for potato
dumplings.
Safety
- Never remove the lid until the cutting disc has completely
stopped.
- Handle the cutting discs with care - they are extremely
sharp.
To use the cutting discs
1 Fit the drive shaft and bowl onto the power unit.
2 Holding by the center grip, place the disc onto the drive
shaft with the appropriate side uppermost.
3 Fit the lid.
4 Put the food in the feed tube.
5 Switch on and push down evenly with the pusher -
never
put your fingers in the feed tube.
Hints
- Use fresh ingredients.
- Don’t cut food too small. Fill the width of the feed tube
fairly full. This prevents the food from slipping sideways
during processing.
- Food placed upright comes out shorter than food placed
horizontal.
- There will always be a small amount of waste on the disc
or in the bowl after processing.
1 CITRUS PRESS (OPTIONAL)
Use the citrus press to squeeze the juice from citrus fruits (e.g.
oranges, lemons, limes and grapefruits).
