• Shake at least half way through cooking.
  Tips: in order to improve the cooking result, do not hesitate to shake 2-3 times when cooking.
  IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging your appliance, never exceed the maximum quantities of ingredients and liquids indicated in the instruction manual and in the recipes.

• Place the cake tin/oven dish in the bowl. When you use mixtures that rise (such as with cake, quiche or muffins) the oven dish should not be filled more than halfway.

TIPS

• Smaller food will require a slightly shorter cooking time than larger size food. If you are unsure, you can open the bowl at any point of cooking to check progress.
• Shaking food halfway through the cooking time improves the end result and can help prevent uneven cooking.
• To make your potatoes extra crispy, try adding a small amount of oil before cooking and shake to evenly cover. We recommend 14 ml of oil.
• Snacks that can be cooked in an oven can also be cooked in the appliance.
• The optimal recommended quantity for cooking fries is 700 grams.
• Use ready made puff and shortcrust pastry to make filled snacks quickly and easily.
• Place an oven dish in the appliance’s bowl if you want to bake a cake or quiche or if you want to fry delicate ingredients or filled ingredients. You can use an oven dish in silicon, stainless steel, aluminium, terracotta.
• You can also use the appliance to reheat food. To reheat food, set the temperature to 160°C for up to 10 minutes. Cooking time could be adjusted depending on food quantity in order to fully reheat the food.

MAKING HOME-MADE CHIPS

If you want to make home-made chips, follow the steps below.

1. Choose a variety of potato recommended for making chips. Peel the potatoes and cut them into equal thickness chips.

2. Soak the potato chips in cold water for at least 30 minutes, drain them and dry them with a clean, highly absorbent tea towel. Then pat with paper kitchen towel. The chips must be thoroughly dry before cooking.

3. Pour 1 tablespoon of oil (vegetable, sunflower or olive) in a dry bowl, put the chips on top and mix until they are coated with oil.

4. Remove the chips from the bowl with your fingers or a kitchen utensil so that any excess oil stays behind in the bowl. Place the chips in the bowl.
   Note: Do not tip the container of oil coated chips directly into the bowl in one go, otherwise excess oil will end up at the bottom of the bowl.

5. Fry the chips according to the instructions in the section Cooking guide.
