Slow Cook Settings
The Risotto Plus has two slow cook settings:
™
Low and High. Use the recommended guidelines
below to determine cooking time and heat settings.
A general rule of thumb for most slow cooked
meat and vegetable recipes is:
Setting Cooking Time
LOW: 6–7 hours
HIGH: 3–4 hour
STEAMING
Foods may be steamed by placing food in the
stainless steel steaming tray over stock or water
and covering with the glass lid. Keep the glass
lid on while steaming food unless the recipe or
chart specifically states to remove the lid. By
removing the lid unnecessarily steam is lost and
the cooking time will be extended.
NOTE
Hot liquid can be added during the
steaming process.

As a guide meats such as chicken or small
pieces of meat will have best results when
cooked on high for 3–4 hours. Larger pieces
of meat such as lamb shanks will have best
results when cooked on low for 6–7 hours.
Low or High Slow Cook Settings
1.
Add all ingredients into the cooking bowl,
ensuring denser foods are spread evenly
across the bottom of the bowl and not
heaped to one side and the liquid level
is between MIN and MAX markings on
the bowl.
2.
Place the glass lid into position.
3.
Press the SLOW COOK LOW OR
SLOW COOK HIGH button, then press
the START / CANCEL button to activate
the setting. The START / CANCEL
button surround will illuminate red
and cooking will commence.
4.

5.
The Risotto Plus will remain on the
™
