Before Using for the First Time

1. Carefully unpack your All in One Hand Blender and remove all packaging materials. Check the contents to ensure all attachments (see Features) have been received in good condition.

2. Wash the stainless steel blending stick, masher, whisk, chopping bowl, chopping blade, beakers and beaker lid in warm soapy water. CAUTION: Do not touch sharp blades

NOTE: Do not submerge the whisk collar/gears or the chopper lid into water as this will damage the gears, wipe these with a damp cloth only.

WARNING: DO NOT IMMERSE THE MOTOR UNIT IN WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID

Using Your All in One Hand Blender

This is great for blending and pureeing, perfect for baby food, dips, drinks, smoothies sauces, salad dressings, soups and milk shakes

BLENDING IN THE BEAKERS

There are two size beakers to choose from, a large 1000ml beaker or a smaller 600ml beaker depending on the quantity required. It is recommended that the beakers are not ﬁlled more than 2/3 full, this is to allow the blending stick to move up and down without the contents spilling over.

BLENDING IN A SAUCEPAN

If using the blending stick to purée hot food in a saucepan or pot, ensure that the saucepan or pot is removed from the heat source and the food or liquid has cooled down sufﬁciently to avoid the risk of scalding. Do not let the hand blender sit in a hot pan on the stove top when not in use

Do not scratch the blending stick over the bottom of pans otherwise any non-stick coating may be damaged. Ensure that the liquid does not come above the join between the blending stick and the motor unit.

1. Attach the stainless steel blending stick to the motor body and turn anticlockwise to lock it into position. (See Figure 1)

2. Ensure the unit is plugged in and the power socket is switched on.

3. Place the food into beakers or into a suitable container.

Fig. 1

SZ-314283_CRUX003_Hand blender_MPL_IM_r2.indd 8 2017-06-09 2:12 PM

Page 11

4. Insert the blending stick into the food before switching on the power this is to avoid splashing.

5. Select the desired speed on the control dial and press the on button. Select a low speed for slower blending and to minimize splashing and a higher speed or turbo for faster blending.

6. Move the hand blender using a mashing or stirring action to blend and mix the food, do not lift the hand blender out of the food before switching off.

NOTE: Do not use the hand blender to process extremely hard foods, such as unshelled nuts, ice cubes, coffee beans, grains, or hard spices e.g. nutmeg. Processing these foods could damage the blades.

7. After use, release the on or turbo button. Turn the blending stick clockwise to unlock.

USING THE MASHER

This can be used with cooked vegetables such as potatoes, carrot and swede. Do not mash hard or raw vegetables as this will damage the mashing head.

MASHING IN A SAUCEPAN

Do not use the mashing head in a saucepan over direct heat, remove from the heat ﬁrst and allow to cool slightly.

Don’t overﬁll the pan, for best results do not ﬁll more than half full with food.

Do not tap the mashing head on the side of the pan, use a spatula to remove any mashed food from the head.

1. Cook your chosen vegetables and drain excess water. Place a lid on the cooked food and leave for 5 minutes, the residual steam will keep the food hot.

2. Attach the mashing head to the motor unit and turn anti-clockwise to lock the attachment into place.

3. Select a low speed on the variable speed control dial.

4. Remove the lid from the vegetables and insert the mashing head into the pan or bowl, pressing the on button, use up and down movements to mash the food until the desired result is achieved.

5. When ﬁnished, release the on button and scrape any mashed food from the mashing head with a spatula. Turn the mashing head clockwise to remove the mashing head.

Page 12

USING THE WHISK

Use the whisk to whip up cream, beat egg whites and whip up ready mix desserts. Do not use the whisk for harder ingredients such as butter and sugar as this will damage the whisk.

For best results, use the whisk in a deep container and use the whisk at an angle when whisking. Ensure when whisking egg whites that you don’t whisk more than 4 large ones at a time and ensure the whisk and bowl are clean and free from grease otherwise they will not whisk properly.

Use fresh cold cream from the fridge when whipping, as this will yield more volume and be more stable.

1. Attach the whisk into the whisk collar and then attach this to the motor head, turn anti-clockwise to lock it into position.

2. Place your food into a suitable container.

3. Turn the speed dial to a low speed to start with, this will prevent splatter.

4. Insert the whisk into the food and press the on button. For best results increase the speed or use the turbo button.

5. When the desired results have been achieved, release the ON or turbo button and turn the whisk collar clockwise.

6. Remove the stainless steel whisk by pulling it out of the collar for cleaning.

USING THE MINI-CHOPPER

The mini chopping bowl can be used to chop meat, ﬁsh, hard cheese, onions, garlic, vegetables, herbs, bread, biscuits and nuts.

It is not suitable for chopping hard foods such as coffee beans, ice cubes, spices or chocolate as these may damage the blade.

1. The chopping bowl comes with a non-slip rubber ring on the base, ensure this is ﬁtted correctly, this will prevent the bowl from moving during use.

2. Remove any bones from meat or ﬁsh and cut food into bit sized pieces.

3 Fit the chopper blade over the pin in the bowl.

4 Add your food, do not overﬁll the bowl, take note of the maximum chopping amounts,

and do not ﬁll above the 500ml max line.

5. Fit the chopping bowl cover, turn and lock into position.

6. Insert the motor unit into the chopper cover and twist to lock into position.

7. Hold the bowl steady and then select your desired speed and press the on button or for more of a rough chop press the turbo button in short bursts to achieve a pulse action.

8. When the desired results have been achieved twist the motor to unlock and lift the motor off the chopping bowl. Twist the cover to unlock from the bowl and lift off. Carefully take out the blade before pouring out the contents of the bowl. To remove the blade, slightly turn it then pull it off.

Salad Niçoise with Seared Tuna

Serves 4

A lovely authentic French salad, this sophisticated dish makes a substantial meal in itself. Make it with fresh meaty tuna and remember to cook the tuna so it is still pink in the centre.

• 12 small Charlotte potatoes

• 4 free range eggs, room temperature

• 2 pieces of sustainably caught Tuna approx. 150g each

• Freshly cracked black pepper

• 2 handfuls of rocket leaves

French vinaigrette dressing

• 1 tsp Dijon mustard

• 1 tbsp white wine vinegar

• ½ small garlic clove, peeled and crushed

• Sea salt ﬂakes

METHOD

Plunge these into cold water and peel when cool enough to handle. Cut into quarters.

Heat a small frying pan over a high heat and add a little olive oil. Coat the tuna steaks with a good grind of freshly ground black pepper on both sides and add to the pan. Sear for 2 minutes on each side, so it is still a little pink in the centre. Remove from the heat and slice. Drain the potatoes and slice in half, cover and keep warm. Drain the green beans.

4. In a large bowl, add the rocket leaves, sliced tomatoes, red onion, olives, sliced potatoes, sliced tuna and drizzle with the vinaigrette and mix together. Top the salad with the eggs, anchovies and green beans, and drizzle with more vinaigrette.

NOTE: Any leftover dressing can be kept in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to 1 week.
