Cooking Guidelines

Take car e when fry ing as the oil an d fat he at up ver y quickl y. At extremely
high temperatur es oil and fat will ignite spontane ously and this present s a
serious fire risk.

Cooking Tips

• When food comes to t he boil , reduce the temperatur e setting.

• Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the heat.

• Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.

• Start cooking on a high setting and reduc e the setting when the food has heated
through.

Simmering, cookin g rice

• Simmering occurs below boiling point, at around 85˚C, when bubbles ar e ju st
rising occasionally to the surface of the cooking liquid. It is the key to delicious
soups and tender stews because th e f lavours develop wi t h out ov ercook ing the
food. You should also cook egg-ba se d an d f lo ur thicke ne d sauce s below boiling
point.

• Some tasks, inclu ding cooki ng rice by th e absor pti on method, may require a
setting higher tha n the lowest setting to en sure the food is cooked properly in
the time recommended.

Searing steak

To cook juicy flavo ursome steaks:

1. Stand the m eat at room temperature for about 20 mi nutes before co oking.

2. Heat up a heavy-based fry in g pan .

3. Brush both sides of the steak with oil. Drizzle a small amount of oil into the hot

pan and then lower the meat onto the hot pan.

4. Turn the steak only once during cooking. The exact cooking time will depend on

about 2 – 8 minutes per si de. Pre ss the steak to gauge ho w co ok ed i t is – the
firmer it feels the more ‘well done’ it will be.

5. Leave the steak t o r est on a warm plate fo r a few minutes to al low it to relax

and beco me t en der befor e serving.

For stir-frying

1. Choose an induction compatible flat-base d wok or a large frying pan.

2. Have all the ingredients and equipment ready. Stir-frying should be q ui ck . If

cooking large quantities, cook the food in several smaller batches.

3. Prehe at the pan briefly and add two ta bl espoons of oil.

4. Cook any meat fir st. Put it aside and keep warm.

5. Stir-fry the vegetables . When they are hot but still crisp, turn the cooki ng zone

to a lower setting, return the meat to the pan and add y our sauce.

6. Stir the ingredients gently to make sure they are hea te d through.

7. Serve immediately.

factors, i n cludin g your cookware and the amount you are cooking. Experiment
