Functions
The food processor can process food in a
variety of ways depending on which blade or
disc you choose.
CHOPPING WITH THE
MICRO-SERRATED S BLADE™
The Micro-serrated universal S Blade™ chops
raw and cooked food to the consistency
required, from coarsely chopped to minced.
For many large processing tasks, the micro-
serrated S Blade™ will cut the processing time
needed to achieve the desired results. The
result depends on the type of food and how
long the food is processed. Always remember
to place the S Blade™ into the processing bowl
before adding the food.
NOTE
To avoid over-processing, check the
consistency frequently. For many processing
tasks we recommend to use the PULSE button,
as it may only take a few seconds to fully
process the food to the desired consistency.
If necessary, press the POWER/OFF button,
unlock the lid and use the spatula to scrape
down the sides of the bowl to ensure even
processing.
Raw Vegetables, Fruit and Cooked Meats
Trim and cut food into 1 inch (2.5cm) cubes.
Process no more than 8 cups at a time using
the PULSE button at 1–2 second intervals until
chopped to desired size or consistency.
Raw meat, chicken and fish
Trim and cut food into 1 inch (2.5cm) cubes.
Ensure all bones are removed. Chill well
until firm as this will help to cut through the
food more readily. Process no more than
2¼ pounds (or 1kg) of raw meat for no more
than 30 seconds at a time using the START/
PAUSE button until chopped or minced to
desired size or consistency.

Garlic, Chili and Ginger
For garlic, peel cloves and leave whole. For chili,
leave whole (remove seeds for milder chili). For
ginger, peel and cut into 1 inch (2.5cm) cubes.
Process until chopped to desired consistency.
Store chopped garlic or chili mixed with a
little vegetable oil in an airtight container in
refrigerator for up to 1 week. Mix ginger with a
little Sherry. If adding garlic, chili or ginger to
other ingredients, drop whole pieces down the
small feed chute while the motor is running.
Herbs
Wash and dry herbs thoroughly. Remove any
coarse stems. Process no more than 2 bunches
(approx. 4 cups) at a time using the PULSE
button at 1-2 second intervals until chopped to
desired size or consistency.
Nuts
Process no more than 6 cups shelled nuts at
a time using the PULSE button at 1-2 second
intervals until chopped to desired size.
Dried fruit
As dried fruit can be sticky, place in freezer
for about 10 minutes (this prevents the fruit
sticking to the blades). Process no more than
4 cups at a time using the PULSE button at
1-2 second intervals until chopped to desired
size or consistency.
NOTE
If chopping fruit to add to cake batter, process
the fruit before making the batter, adding a
little flour from recipe quantity to prevent fruit
from sticking to the S Blade™ processing blade.
Citrus peel
Remove the peel from the fruit using a
vegetable peeler and cut into 1 inch (2.5cm)
pieces. Process no more than 6 cups at a time
together with ½ cup granulated sugar and
using the PULSE button at 1-2 second intervals
until chopped to desired size.
