Cooking Rice with your Multi-cooker
Your multi-cooker will cook brown and white rice beautifully using the Steam function. You don't need to set the timer
because your multi-cooker will automatically switch off when the rice is cooked.
Cooking time will vary depending on the amount of water and rice added to the bowl but as an example, 2 cups of washed
basmati rice take about 10 minutes, (including preheating).
• Always rinse white/basmati uncooked rice in cold water prior to cooking. This removes the starchy residue and
produces fluffy rice. Place the rice into a suitable sieve and rinse well until the water runs clear. Allow to drain for 5
minutes.
• When steaming rice, place the water into the cooking bowl first, then add the washed rice. Ensure the rice is evenly
spread around the base of the bowl before steaming.
• The preheating cycle of your multicooker is included in the cooking time, so place your rice in the unit before
preheating.
• When steaming smaller amounts of rice, there may be some slight spitting of water from the steam vent in the lid. This
is entirely normal, however we advise that you position your multi-cooker away from any electrical sockets etc.
• You may notice that a sticky residue of cooked rice is left on the bowl after steaming your rice. Most of this should be
removable using a non-metallic spoon or spatula. The remainder can be removed by soaking the bowl in hot soapy
water for a few minutes.
• Cooking rice using your multi-cooker will only work when the correct ratio of rice and water is used. Therefore, it is
imperative that you measure out the rice and water using the rice measure provided. Do not try to guess.
• Always use cold water.
• Always place the lid on your multi-cooker when steaming rice
• The rice does not need to be stirred during the steaming process.
• Once cooked your multi-cooker will automatically switch off. However, leaving the rice in the bowl with the lid on for 1
or 2 minutes will allow the rice to soften further.
