11. When the timer finishes the machine will sound an alarm to let you know it has
finished. It will automatically switch off and stop cooking.
12. Switch off the power and unplug the steamer.
13. Allow the hot machine to cool for a few seconds before opening.
14. Wearing oven gloves, carefully remove the lid by holding the handle, taking care to
avoid the hot steam escaping. Allow the steam to clear before removing the baskets.
15. Remove each basket one-by-one, ensuring you hold them by the handles and place
them down onto a heatproof surface.
Allow the steam to clear, then remove the baskets and serve the food.
16. After you have emptied the steamer, leave it to cool down thoroughly.
Once cooled, empty the water tank by pouring the remaining water and fluids into the
sink. Wipe clean the inside of the tank, then wind the power cable around inside the
base for storage.
Useful Tips
•
Steaming times stated in the Cooking Guide are only a guide.
Cooking times may vary depending on size of the food pieces, spacing of the food in
the steamer baskets, quantity of food, freshness of food and personal preference to
how well done you want something. As you become familiar with the steamer and the
way it works, simply adjust the cooking times as necessary.
•
A single tray of food steams faster than with 2 or 3 bowls used at the same time.
Therefore, the more food you cook the longer you will need to cook it for.
•
The smaller you cut the food, the quicker it will cook. Larger pieces of food will take
longer, so try to make sure all the different foods are made to be similar in size.
•
Do not over-fill or crowd the food baskets or rice bowl.
Try to arrange food so that it is spread out and has space between the pieces to
allow for the maximum steam to reach the food.
•
Fat will naturally drain away from meat and poultry whilst cooking.
However, for best results use small portions and trimming excess fat off beforehand.
•
Always check food is piping hot and cooked through before serving.
If the food seems uncooked or needs more time,
simply put it back into the steamer and set the timer dial again to cook it for longer.
