HOW TO USE THE SLOW COOK SETTING
•With your SOLIS Multi Chef Pro multi cooker you can not only prepare perfect
rice or risotto but also cook using the healthy and gentle SLOW COOK method.
SLOW COOK means that you cook longer at lower temperatures.
•Your Multi Chef Pro has two SLOW COOK settings for your choice: LOW (slowly)
and HIGH (a little bit quicker). Use the recommended guidelines below to de-
termine cooking time and heat settings and use recipes at the end of this in-
struction book. Dishes can be prepared well in advance and cooking time re-
gulated so that food is ready to serve at a convenient time.
•A general rule of thumb for most slow cooked meat and vegetable recipes is:
Cooking Time: LOW setting: 6 – 7 hours
HIGH setting: 3 – 4 hours
•Your favourite traditional recipes can also be easily adapted to this slow cooker.
Simply halve the amount of liquid and increase the cooking time.
•Note: These cooking times are approximates only and times can vary depending
on ingredients, quantities in recipes and whether the cooking bowl and its in-
gredients are hot from searing.
•As a guide meats such as chicken or small pieces of meat will have best results
when cooked on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours.
•Larger pieces of meat such as lamb shanks will have best results when cooked
on LOW for 6 to 7 hours.
•When the SAUTÉ/SEAR setting is used prior to slow cooking, cooking times will
be shortened slightly. Check for doneness intermittently during cooking.
•The SOLIS Multi Chef Pro is designed specifically for flavour layering. A techni-
que professional chefs use to enhance and deepen the taste of meals by using
the same pan for browning onions, searing meats and creating casseroles, cur-
ries, soups and bolognaise.
•For this reason, SOLIS has developed a multi cooker that not only cooks, but also
sears – thanks to the SAUTÉ/SEAR setting to caramelise vegetables and sear
meats before commencing the slow cooker function.
