TIP
HOW TO MAKE RICE
RICE|STEAM setting
1. Use the multi cooker rice scoop provided to measure the required quantity of rice (refer to cooking tables - page 18).
Always measure level scoops, not heaped
(Fig 1).
(1 Australian standard metric measuring cup is equal to 200g of uncooked rice) If your multi cooker rice scoop is lost or misplaced, use another cup but maintain the same cooking ratios and ensure you do not exceed the 10 scoop maximum line in the removable cooking bowl: White Rice = 1 scoop rice + 1 scoop water (using the multi cooker rice scoop) Brown Rice = 1 scoop rice + 1½ scoops water (using the multi cooker rice scoop)
NOTE
2. Place measured rice into aseparate bowl and wash with cold water to remove any excess starch. The rice is ready for cooking when water runs clear from the rice. Drain well.
3. Ensure the exterior of the removable cooking bowl is clean before placing it in the housing (this will ensure proper contact with the inner cooking surface) (Fig 2).
Fig. 1
The multi cooker rice scoop is not astandard metric measuring cup. 1 multi cooker rice scoop is equal to 150g of uncooked rice and 180ml of water.
Fig. 2
4. Add the washed rice to the removable cooking bowl, ensuring rice is spread evenly across the bottom of the bowl and not heaped to one side (Fig 3).
OPERATING YOUR MULTI CHEF RC 4010

Fig. 3
5. Add water using the following ratios: White Rice = 1 scoop rice: 1 scoop water Brown Rice = 1 scoop rice: 1½ scoops water
6. Place the glass lid into position.
7. Plug power cord into 230V or 240V power outlet. The START|CANCEL button and RISOTTO button surround will illuminate in white.
8. Press the RICE|STEAM button, then press the START|CANCEL button to activate the setting. The START|CANCEL button surround will illuminate red and cooking will commence.
9. When cooking is complete, the ready beeps will sound and the multi cooker will automatically switch to the KEEP WARM setting.
10. Open the lid and turn the rice over with the serving spoon provided. Replace the lid and allow the rice to stand for 10-15 minutes before serving. This allows any excess moisture to be absorbed, resulting in a u er rice texture.
After using the RICE setting the appliance will automatically switch to the KEEP WARM setting for up to 5 hours.
NOTE
Do not remove the glass lid until ready to serve (except for when turning over rice after cooking is complete or as suggested in the recipes).
NOTE
To stop the KEEP WARM setting, unplug the power cord.

HOW TO SLOW COOK
SEAR setting
Searing in the multi cooker may take alittle extra time and whilst not strictly necessary, the rewards are evident in the end result. The cooking bowl keeps the heat stable and uniform allowing the meat to brown and form an even crust. Plus searing seals in the moisture, intensi es the  avour and provides more tender results.
1. Ensure exterior of the removable cooking bowl is clean before placing it in the housing (this will ensure proper contact with the inner cooking surface).
2. Plug power cord into a230V or 240V power outlet. The START|CANCEL button and RISOTTO button surround will illuminate in white.
3. Press the SAUTÉ|SEAR button, the button surround will illuminate white.
Press the START|CANCEL button to
activate the setting, the button surround will illuminate red.
4. Cover with lid and allow to pre-heat for approximately 2-3 minutes (do not preheat for longer than 5 minutes).
5. Add oil/butter and allow to heat/melt for approximately 1 minute with the lid on.
6. Always sear meat and poultry in small batches. Cover with lid and cook, stirring occasionally until food is evenly browned. Remove from cooking bowl.
When  nished searing, proceed to the
Slow Cook Settings section below.
Slow Cook Settings
The multi cooker has two slow cook settings: Low and High. Use the recommended guidelines below to determine cooking time and heat settings and use recipes in this instruction book. Dishes can be prepared well in advance and cooking time regulated so that food is ready to serve at aconvenient time.
Ageneral rule of thumb for most slow cooked meat and vegetable recipes is:
Setting Cooking Time
LOW: 6-7 hours HIGH: 3-4 hours
Your favourite traditional recipes can also be easily adapted to this slow cooker. Simply halve the amount of liquid and increase the cooking time.
These cooking times are approximates only and times can vary depending on ingredients, quantities in recipes and whether the cooking bowl and its ingredients are hot from searing.
NOTE
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.
Cooking Times (with Searing)
When the SAUTÉ|SEAR setting is used prior to slow cooking, cooking times will be shortened slightly. Check for doneness intermittently during cooking.
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 LOW SLOW COOK OR HIGH SLOW COOK button, then press the START|CANCEL button to activate the setting. The START|CANCEL button surround will illuminate red and cooking will commence.

4. Allow to cook until the ready beeps sound. The unit then automatically switches to KEEP WARM setting.
5. The multi cooker will remain on the KEEP WARM setting for 5 hours before switching OFF.
The Catler Multi Chef is designed speci cally for  avour layering. Atechnique professional chefs use to enhance and deepen the taste of meals by using the same pan for browning onions, searing meats and creating casseroles, curries, soups and bolognaise. For this reason, we have now developed aSLOW COOK with aSAUTÉ|SEAR setting to caramelise vegetables and sear meats before commencing the slow cooker function. Following is aguide to help simplify the process of slow cooking, allowing you to obtain optimum results from your multi cooker. We have also included helpful hints for successful slow cooking. For recipes, go to recipe section in this instruction book.
Preparing meat and poultry
Select the freshest cuts when purchasing meat. Trim the meat or poultry of any visible excess fat. If possible, purchase chicken portions without the skin. Otherwise, the slow cooking process will result in extra liquid being formed from the fat as it melts. For casserole type recipes, cut the meat into cubes, approximately 4cm to 5cm. Slow cooking allows less tender cuts of meat to be used. The bones can be left in meat or poultry. This imparts agood  avour and helps to keep the meat tender during cooking.
Suitable meat cuts for slow cooking
Beef chuck, skirt, round steak, boneless shin (gravy) beef, bone-in-shin (osso bucco), tri tip. Lamb shanks, drumsticks (frenched shanks), neck chops, boned out forequarter or shoulder. Veal diced leg, shoulder/forequarter chops and steaks, neck chops, knuckle (osso bucco). Pork leg steaks, diced belly, diced shoulder, boneless loin chops. Chicken pieces bone in (thigh cutlets/ drumsticks). Chicken thigh  llets.
Preparing vegetables
Vegetables should be cut into even-sized pieces to ensure more even cooking. Frozen vegetables must be thawed before adding to other foods cooking in the multi cooker.

RICE COOKING TABLES
The rice scoop provided with your multi cooker is used in the following tables.
The multi cooker rice scoop is not astandard metric measuring cup. 1 multi cooker rice scoop is equal to 150g of uncooked rice and 180ml of water. (1 Australian standard metric measuring cup is equal to 200g of uncooked rice) If your multi cooker rice scoop is lost or misplaced, use another cup but maintain the same cooking ratios and ensure you do not exceed the 10 scoop maximum line in the removable cooking bowl: White Rice = 1 scoop rice + 1 scoop water (using the multi cooker rice scoop) Brown Rice = 1 scoop rice + 1½ scoops water (using the multi cooker rice scoop)
