COOKING FUNCTIONS

SLOW COOK LOW & HIGH
With the cast iron pot securely placed into the multicooker base, place all ingredients into the pot ensuring food is evenly spread across the base of the pot. Place the lid onto the cast iron pot.
Select the desired cooking function then use the timer buttons to adjust the cooking time. Select the START/CANCEL button to confirm the selection and commence cooking. The light around the selected function will illuminate and the LED display will show the countdown timer.
Once the cooking time elapses, the multicooker will beep three times and the KEEP WARM light will illuminate. The automatic keep warm mode will operate for 2 hours before switching to standby mode. The SLOW COOK LOW setting gently heats food for an extended period of time without overcooking or burning.
The SLOW COOK HIGH setting will cook food in approximately half the time required for LOW setting. Some foods may boil when cooked on the HIGH setting, so it may be necessary to add extra liquid. This will depend on the recipe and the amount of time in which it is cooked. Occasional stirring of stews and casseroles will improve the flavour distribution. For more information, refer to the Slow Cooking Guide on page 14 of this manual.

NOTE
The cast iron pot and lid are oven safe up to 200°C and should always be positioned on the lowest oven rack.
WARNING
If you are not home during the slow cooking process and the power goes out, throw away the food even if it looks cooked.
CAUTION
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use dry oven mitts and handles when lifting and carrying the cast iron pot. Lift and remove the lid carefully, angling it away from you to prevent scalding from escaping steam, and place it a wooden chopping board . Allow the multicooker to cool completely before moving or cleaning any parts.
CAUTION
Extreme caution must be used when the multicooker contains hot food and liquids.
WARNING
The temperature of accessible surfaces will be high when the multicooker is operating and for some time after use.
STEAM
Before steaming, ensure that the cast iron pot is clean. Place the steaming basket into the base of the cast iron pot. Place 0.5 – 1.5L of water or stock into the cast iron pot, ensuring that the liquid level is below the base of the steaming basket.
Depending on the food and desired cooking result, the food to be steamed can either be placed on the steaming basket before the function is selected or once the liquid has reached boiling temperature.
Place the food to be steamed onto the steaming basket and place the lid onto the cast iron pot. For best results, do not open the lid until food is cooked. Opening the lid will allow steam to escape and will prolong cooking time.
Once the STEAM function is selected, the light around the function button and preheat light will illuminate. The unit will preheat for approximately 7-15 minutes, with the time dependent on water temperature and amount, before the timer commences counting down. Then, use the timer buttons to adjust the required steaming time. Ensure that you have enough water for the set time.
It is important to note that for the STEAM function, the power level is fixed at P2 and cannot be adjusted.
While steaming, monitor the liquid levels in the cast iron pot. If more liquid is required, remove the lid, top up with hot water or stock before replacing the lid. With the lid closed, 1L of water will take approximately 45 minutes to evaporate.
Once steaming is complete, use heat-proof mitts to remove the steaming basket from the cast iron pot. Alternatively, use tongs to remove food from the steaming basket and allow the steaming basket to completely cool before removing it from the cast iron pot.
For more information, refer to the Steaming Guide page 16 of this manual.
FAST COOK
The FAST COOK setting is designed to expedite the cooking process by utilising higher temperatures to cook food more quickly.
This setting is particularly useful when you are looking to prepare meals in a shorter amount of time without compromising on flavour and tenderness.
Prepare and gather all the ingredients in the cast iron pot before setting it on the multicooker base. Cover the cast iron pot with the lid. Select the FAST COOK function and use the timer buttons to set the necessary cooking duration.
KEEP WARM
This multicooker has an automatic KEEP WARM feature. The automatic keep warm will activate after using SLOW COOK LOW, SLOW COOK HIGH and FAST COOK.
This is indicated by the illumination of the KEEP WARM indicator light, and the display will begin counting up.
The KEEP WARM function will run for a maximum of 4 hours before the multicooker transitions into standby mode. The KEEP WARM function can be cancelled at any point by pressing the START/CANCEL button.
CAUTION
Do not place the cast iron pot or lid into or under cold water while it is still hot.
NOTE
If there is a power interruption during a browning or cooking function, the multicooker will retain the current program and timing.
When the power is restored to the unit, the multicooker will resume the program.

Slow Cooking Guide

The Ultimate Cook™ 6 in 1 Multicooker allows you to enhance and deepen the taste of meals by using the same pot for browning, searing and slow cooking. Depending on the temperature and ingredients, slow cooking can take between 3 and 12 hours.
Browning prior to slow cooking is recommended but not strictly necessary.
Searing and browning seals in the moisture, intensifies the flavour and provides more tender results.
Brown meat in small batches for best results.
PREPARING MEAT
When purchasing meat for slow cooking, select leaner cuts and trim the meat or poultry of any visible fat and sinew.
For casserole type recipes, cut the meat into cubes, approximately 2-4 cm. Slow cooking allows less tender cuts of meat to be used. The bones can be left on meat or poultry, if desired, and will help to keep meat tender during cooking but will increase the required
cooking time.
SUITABLE CUTS FOR SLOW COOKING

PREPARING VEGETABLES
All vegetables should be cut into even-sized pieces (approximately 2–3cm) to ensure even cooking. Frozen vegetables must be thawed before adding to other foods cooking in the multicooker.
SLOW COOKING IN THE MULTICOOKER
The long, slow, covered cooking process breaks down and softens the connective and muscle tissue within the meat, making it easier to slice.
Cheaper cuts of meat can be used with this method.
Sear the meat using the SEAR function prior to slow cooking.
TIPS

  • Trim all visible fat and sinew from meat or poultry.
  • Meat and poultry require at least 5–7 hours of cooking on SLOW COOK LOW or 2–4 hours on SLOW COOK HIGH.
  • Ensure that the food and liquid do not exceed ¾ full in the cast iron pot.
  • If the liquid quantity is excessive after cooking time has elapsed, remove the lid and operate the multicooker on FAST COOK for 30–45 minutes or until liquid begins to reduce. Alternatively, the liquid can be thickened by adding a mixture of cornflour and water to the hot liquid.
  • Brown meat in small batches for best results.

Do’s
Always thaw frozen meat and poultry before cooking.
Use dry heat-proof oven mitts when lifting the lid or removing the cast iron pot after use.
Whenever the hot cast iron pot is not being used on the multicooker base, place the cast iron pot on wooden chopping board to protect benchtop.
Don’ts
Do not operate the multicooker without the cast iron pot in position in the multicooker base.
Do not cook with frozen meats or poultry.
Do not remove the lid from the multicooker unnecessarily as it will result in a major loss of heat.
Do not use the SLOW COOK HIGH setting if you intend on being away from the house for over 3 hours.

WARNING

  • Do not place the cast iron pot or lid on any bench without appropriate heat protection.
  • Never put the hot cast iron pot or lid directly on the bench. Always utilize a suitably sized wooden chopping board.
  • Never place water or other liquids directly into multicooker base
  • Never immerse the multicooker base, power cord, or power plug in water or any other liquid.
  • Never touch hot surfaces. Always use dry, heat-proof oven mitts when removing the lid or cast iron pot after cooking.

Steaming Guide

Steamed foods retain most of their nutritional value. Foods can be steamed by placing them on the provided steaming basket over stock or water in the cast iron pot. Ensure that the food sits above the liquid level in the pot.
When steaming, it is important to keep the lid closed, as opening it will allow the steam to escape, resulting in prolonged cooking times and uneven cooking. Depending on the food and the desired cooking result, the food can be placed on the steaming basket either before selecting the function or after preheating is complete. The multicooker will beep to indicate the end of preheating, and then the timer will begin counting down from the set time. The preheat time typically varies from 7 to 15 minutes, depending on the water temperature and the amount of water used.
STEAMING VEGETABLES

  • Smaller pieces will steam faster than larger pieces.
  • Vegetables should be a uniform size to ensure a more consistent cooking result.
  • Both fresh and frozen vegetables can be steamed. Frozen vegetables will require a longer cooking time and should not be thawed before steaming.
  • Size and shape of vegetables and personal preference may require adjustments to the advised cooking times. For softer vegetables, allow extra cooking time.
  • Do not let the water or stock in the cast iron pot touch the base of the steaming basket.

STEAMING FISH

  • Season fish with fresh herbs, onions, lemon etc. before cooking.
  • Ensure fish fillets are in a single layer on the steaming basket wrapped en papillote (in paper wrapper) and do not overlap.
  • Fish is cooked when it flakes easily with a fork and is opaque in colour.

STEAMING POULTRY

  • Select similar sized pieces of poultry to ensure even cooking.
  • For even cooking results arrange poultry in a single layer on the steaming basket.
  • Remove visible fat, sinew and skin.
  • To obtain a browned appearance, sear the chicken before steaming.
  • Check poultry is cooked by piercing the thickest part. It is cooked when the juices run clear.

STEAMING DUMPLINGS

  • Fresh or frozen dumplings and savoury buns can be steamed.
  • Place small pieces of baking paper, cabbage or lettuce leaves under the dumplings to avoid sticking while cooking.

Care & Cleaning

Before cleaning, turn the multicooker off by switching off at the power outlet and unplug.
Always allow the multicooker to fully cool before removing the lid and cast iron pot for cleaning. Cast iron is prone to thermal shock when suddenly cooled or heated – allow the cast iron pot and lid to cool completely before washing.
Wash the cast iron pot, lid and steaming basket in hot, soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly.
Except for the steam basket, which is dishwasher safe, it is not recommended to clean any part of the multicooker in the dishwasher.
Doing so can damage the enamel coating on the cast iron pot and lid. To prolong the life of the enamel coating, it is recommended to wash with hot, soapy water using a mild detergent, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
The multicooker base should be wiped over with a soft, damp cloth and dried thoroughly.
To remove stubborn cooked on foods from the cast iron pot, fill the pot with warm, soapy water and soak for 20-30 minutes. Use a soft nylon kitchen brush to lightly scrub the food off the pot.
WARNING
Do not use chemicals or abrasive cleaners to clean the outside of the multicooker base, cast iron pot and lid as these can damage the base or the enamel coating of the cast iron pot and lid.
WARNING
Do not immerse the base, power cord or power outlet in water or any other liquid as this may cause electrocution.

Maintaining and Re-seasoning
Your Cast Iron Pot
Re-season regularly to preserve the enamel coating and maintain optimal cooking performance.

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C.
  2. Ensure the cast iron pot and lid are clean and free from any food residue or debris. Wipe with a damp cloth or paper towel if required.
  3. Dip paper towel or cloth into the vegetable oil, ensuring it is not saturated; a thin layer of oil is sufficient. Gently rub the oil onto the inside and rim of the cast iron pot and lid.
  4. Wipe off any excess oil, leaving a very light, almost invisible coating of oil on zthe surface.
  5. Place the pot and lid upside down on a baking sheet, sheet of aluminium foil and/or baking tray to catch any potential oil drips during seasoning.
  6. Place the cast iron pot and lid in the preheated oven on the lowest rack position.
  7. Bake for 1 hour to allow the oil to bond with the exposed cast iron surface.
  8. Turn off the oven and let the pot and lid cool down inside the oven. This gradual cooling helps the oil bond and create a protective layer.
  9. The above steps may be repeated for a more durable seasoning result or if you notice any uneven spots.

IMPORTANT NOTE

  • Avoid Immersion: Never soak your cast iron pot in water for extended periods or place in a dishwasher. Excessive exposure to moisture can lead to rust.
  • Regular Use: Cooking in the pot regularly helps maintain the seasoning and prevents rust.
  • Watch for Rust: If you notice any rust, scrub the affected area with a brush and re-season.

STORAGE
Before storing, ensure that the multicooker has cooled down entirely, is cleaned, and dried. Store the multicooker with the cast iron pot resting on the base, the steaming basket placed inside the pot, and the lid placed on top of the pot.
WARNING
Do not store anything on top of the multicooker.
