Cooking Guidelines
Take care when frying as the oil and fat heat up very quickly,
particularly if you’re using PowerBoost. At extremely high tem-
peratures oil and fat will ignite spontaneously and this presents
a serious fire risk.
Cooking Tips
When food comes to the boil, reduce the temperature setting.
Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retain-
ing the heat.
Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.
Start cooking on a high setting and reduce the setting when the
food has heated through.
Simmering, cooking rice
Simmering occurs below boiling point, at around 85°C, when
bubbles are just rising occasionally to the surface of the cooking
liquid. It is the key to delicious soups and tender stews because
the flavours develop without overcooking the food. You should
also cook egg-based and flourthickened sauces below boiling
point.
Some tasks, including cooking rice by the absorption method,
may require a setting higher than the lowest setting to ensure
the food is cooked properly in the time recommended.
Searing steak
To cook juicy flavoursome steaks:
1 Stand the meat at room temperature for about 20 minutes
before cooking.
2 Heat up a heavy-based frying pan.
3 Brush both sides of the steak with oil. Drizzle a small
amount of oil into the hot pan and then lower the meat onto
the hot pan.
4 Turn the steak only once during cooking. The exact cooking
time will depend on the thickness of the steak and how coo-
ked you want it. Times may vary from about 2 – 8 minutes
per side. Press the steak to gauge how cooked it is
– the firmer it feels the more ”well done” it will be.
5 Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to
allow it to relax and become tender before serving.
For stir-frying
1 Choose an induction compatible flat-based wok or a large
frying pan.
2 Have all the ingredients and equipment ready. Stir-frying
should be quick. If cooking large quantities, cook the food in
several smaller batches.
3 Preheat the pan briefly and add two tablespoons of oil.
4 Cook any meat first, put it aside and keep warm.
5 Stir-fry the vegetables. When they are hot but still crisp, turn
the cooking zone to a lower setting, return the meat to the
pan and add your sauce.
6 Stir the ingredients gently to make sure they are heated
through.
7 Serve immediately.
Heat Settings
The settings below are guidelines only. The exact setting will de-
pend on several factors, including your cookware and the amount
