Your Mistral Pastry Chef
Snack Maker

Congratulations on the purchase of your new
Mistral Pastry Chef Sausage Roll & Apple Turnover
Snack Maker.

Before first using the Pastry Chef Snack Maker,
it is most important that you read and follow the
instructions in this use and care booklet, even if
you feel you are quite familiar with this type
of appliance. Find a place and keep this booklet
handy for future reference. Attention is particularly
drawn to the section dealing with “IMPORTANT
SAFEGUARDS”.

This appliance has been designed to operate
from a standard domestic power outlet. It is not
intended for industrial or commercial use.

How to use your Mistral
Pastry Chef Sausage Roll &
Apple Turnover Snack Maker.

The Mistral Pastry Chef Snack Maker is designed
to make an assortment of Pastry Snacks. It makes
delicious Sausage Rolls, Apple Turnovers,
Seafood Puffs, Savouries & Desserts. The Pastry
Chef is very simple and easy to operate. Just follow
the four easy steps outlined below. Puff or
Shortcrust pastry can be used, just purchase
the standard pastry sheets from your nearest
supermarket.

Using the Pastry Chef Template

The Pastry Chef Template has been designed to
accurately cut the pastry sheets into the appropriate
size to fit the Pastry Chef for easy operation.

Align one edge of the template with the edge
of the standard pastry sheet.

Press along the handle to cut the pastry in half.
The pastry can be frozen or thawed.

Operation

When using your Pastry Chef for the first time,
condition the non-stick surface of each of the
cooking areas with a thin coating of cooking
oil or shortening applied with a paper towel
or similar item.

Switch the appliance on. There is no need
to preheat the appliance.

Note: When cooking the Green Indicator Light
may flash on and off as the heating elements
maintain the correct temperature. This does not
indicate that cooking is complete.

STEP 1

Open the lid fully and lay Puff or Shortcrust
pastry onto the Pastry Chef. Take care as the
cooking plates will be hot.

Form hollows in the four dishes using the back
of a spoon. Alternatively, the weight of the
filling will form the hollows.

Ensure pastry covers the edges to avoid filling
oozing out during cooking.

STEP 2

Spoon in your choice of filling. See recipes for
different alternatives of tasty fillings.

Press

STEP 3

Lay second pastry sheet over the top of
the filling.

Ensure pastry covers the edges to avoid filling
oozing out during cooking.

STEP 4

When you are ready to cook, gently close the
lid until you are able to attach the two handles
together with the locking clip. Do not force
the Lid to close.

Cook for approximately 10-12 minutes or
until golden brown. The length of cooking
time may vary depending on the case, filling
and your personal taste.

You can check on the progress of your cooking
by simply unlocking the Locking Clip and
opening the Pastry Chef. If your food still
requires further cooking time, close the
Pastry Chef and relock the Locking Clip.

Some fillings may melt and cause sticking.
To free sticking ingredients use a heat resistant
plastic spatula or wooden utensil. Never use
a sharp metal object such as a knife as this
will damage the non-stick surface.

Care must be taken whilst cooking as steam
may rise from between the two cooking plates.

Please note: It is not necessary to wait for the
appliance to cool down before cooking a
second round of pastries.

Cleaning Your Mistral
Pastry Chef

To protect against the risk of electric shock do not
immerse any part of this appliance in water or any
other liquid.

Before cleaning your Pastry Chef Maker, turn the
power off at the power outlet. Remove the plug
from the power outlet and allow the unit to
cool completely.

To Clean Inside

As the cooking plates are coated with a
premium Non-Stick Coating, little cleaning
is required. Wipe over cooking plates with a
dampened cloth. Do not immerse any part of
this appliance in water.

Do not use abrasive creams, steel wool or
scouring pads.

To Clean Outside

Simply wipe over the outside body with a
dampened cloth. Do not use abrasive creams,
steel wool or scouring pads.
