Instructions for Use

Frequently asked questions

How to better use my product

How much water do you need to use with rice?

As a guide to cook 1 cup of rice (serves 2 small or 1 large portion) use 1 measuring cup of white rice and then add one and a half measuring cup of water. With some types of rice it is normal for a little rice to stick on the base when cooking 1 cup of rice.

Why is the rice not fully cooked or is over cooked?

There is not enough or too much water compared to the quantity of rice being cooked, please refer to the cooking guide. Make sure that the rice is well distributed around the whole surface of the bowl in order to allow even cooking.

Can I cook different types of rice in the cooker?

Refer to recipe advice supplied in instructions. There will be different cooking times and water quantities for different types of rice.

Do I need to cook vegetables or shellfish before adding to the rice if doing a varied rice recipe?

There is no need to precook vegetables or shellfish before putting them in the rice as the steaming action will cook them thoroughly.

Can I steam food in the basket at the same time as cooking the rice?

Yes you can, but remember not to overload the steaming basket as it is fairly shallow (ie not as deep as a steaming basket) and there needs to be some space for steam to circulate around the food. Also remember that you might not want raw meat/fish juices going into the rice as it is cooked although this will add some flavour - you may want to cook meat or fish on greaseproof paper in the steamer. Vegetables will be fine.

Can I add salt/seasoning with the rice before cooking?

Yes. You can add salt and seasoning in the water to give a better taste.

Maintenance and cleaning

Can I put the removable non-stick bowl in the dishwasher?

Yes, they are dishwasher safe. But be careful not to damage the inside coating on the dishwasher racks when you put the elements into the machine. After having washed them several times in the dishwasher, it is recommended to wipe the whole of the inner surface of the bowl with a little oil.

Why has my food overflowed from the lid?

Ensure you do not exceed the 10 cup mark shown in "cups" on the inside of the bowl, exceeding this level may cause overflows during use.
