Measuring the ingredients - Max capacity of the bowl
The plastic cup is only used for measuring rice and not the water (except when cooking
1 cup of rice).
The graduated markings on the inside of the bowl are given in liters and cups, these
are used for measuring the amount of water when cooking rice –
fig. 7
. If cooking
other foods, such as pasta, follow the quantities in the recipes.
The plastic cup provided with your appliance is for measuring rice, refer to the table
below for the quantity of rice required for the number of servings. 1 level measuring
cup of rice weighs 5.5 oz.
The table below gives a guide to cooking white rice. For best results, we recommend
using regular rice rather than instant-type rice which tends to result in a stickier rice
and may adhere to the base. With other types of rice, such as brown or wild rice, the
quantities of water need adjustment (see the table below).
To cook 1 cup of white rice (serves 2 small or 1 large portion), use 1 measuring cup
of white rice and then add 1 1/2 measuring cup of water. With some types of rice it
is normal for a little rice to stick on the base when cooking 1 cup of rice.
The maximum quantity of water + rice should not exceed the 10 cup mark inside the
bowl –
fig. 7
.
Rinse the rice thoroughly before cooking.
