thermostat maintains the appliance at
the set temperature.
4 When you have finished using the
appliance remove the plug from the wall
socket, and allow it to cool.
5 Allow the appliance to cool down
completely before you remove the
thermostat plug, since the temperature
sensor on the thermostat plug (the
central metal pin) becomes very hot.
Frying times and temperatures
The frying time depends largely on the
type and thickness of the ingredients. You
can experiment with the time and
temperature to achieve the best results.
The thermostat is not calibrated in degrees
Celsius; it is marked with graduations from
1 through 6. This is because the actual
temperature at a given setting depends on
a wide range of factors, such as the
ingredients in the pan and the use of oil/
butter or water, etc. The indicative
temperatures for each setting are given in
the following table:

Cooking tips
Small pieces of meat, fish, etc., will be
done more rapidly, and will be cooked
better than larger pieces.
Turning meat and fish only once whilst
frying will help prevent it from drying out.
This will also be avoided by turning over

the food with a spatula rather than pricking
it with a fork.
Frying or cooking fish for too long will make
it tough, and will spoil the flavour. In
general, fish is done when the tissue
readily separates (into layers) and has lost
its transparency or raw colour.
Frying/Grilling
Do not use more than a small quantity of
oil or frying fat when frying or grilling food.
Since the pan has a non-stick coating you
can also decide to dispense with oil or fat
altogether. The pan is not suitable for use
as a deep fryer or an oil fondue.
Coating fish with breadcrumbs, crumbled
rusks or flour before you fry it will protect
the fish from the heat and prevent it from
drying out. After frying the fish place it on a
piece of paper kitchen towel to drain.
Stir-frying
Stir-fried dishes are prepared by
continually stirring and turning until the
ingredients are done. Only a little oil is
required; the pan is set to a high
temperature. Put the meat or fish in the
pan, and turn it repeatedly until it is about
three-quarters done. You can then add the
further ingredients, such as carrots,
onions, mushrooms, paprikas, courgettes,
and/or a little thin sauce, etc., etc., and
continue cooking until the meat or fish is
done.
Stir-frying is healthy since only a little oil is
required, little or no salt needs to be
added, and the vitamins are retained.
Moreover the food is delicious since this
method of preparation does full justice to
the flavour of the ingredients – and the
vegetables remain crisp.
Cooking
Food is cooked by heating it in boiling
liquid until it is done. The Classic Multi

cooking moderate quantities of pasta and
