Slow cookerPlease read and keep these instructions
Getting the best from your new appliance...
SafetyNever touch the outer enclosure of the slow cooker during its operation or
before it has cooled down. Use oven gloves when removing the lid or ceramic
pot.
EfficiencyRemoving the lid will allow valuable heat to escape, reducing the efficiency of
your slow cooker and increasing the cooking time. If you remove the lid more
than a couple of times to stir or add ingredients, then you will need to allow
10-15 minutes extra cooking time each time you remove the lid.
Enjoy the benefitsSlow cooking gives you convenient, versatile and flavoursome food. Longer
cooking times allow better distribution of flavours, giving them time to blend
and season the food. A slow cooker heats food gently, making it a great way
to cook meats, less expensive cuts in particular, such as stewing beef, which
are tenderised through the long cooking process. Remember, there are no
limits to the potential uses of your slow cooker, only your imagination!

About slowcooking
Slow cooking has always beenthe best way to prepare anutritious hot meal withminimum preparation andmaximum free time away fromthe kitchen. Morphy Richardshas brought this style ofcooking into this modern,cooking system; providing youwith style, convenience andgreat tasting meals.
Traditionally, slow cooking hascentred on soups andcasseroles, but with this oval
ceramic pot you can alsoproduce most modern familymeals and dinner party dishes.This pot is convenient as wellas looking good enough to takestraight to the table for serving(always place the ceramic poton a heat proof mat or surface).
Slow cooking gives youconvenient, versatile andflavoursome food. The longercooking times allow betterdistribution of flavours, givingthem time to blend and seasonthe food. A slow cooker heatsfood gently, making it a greatway to cook meats - inparticular, less-expensive cuts,
such as stewing beef, which aretenderised through the longcooking process. Remember,there are no limits to thepotential uses of your slowcooker, only your imagination!
IMPORTANT: The slow cookerworks by building up heat andmaintaining an eventemperature. To get the bestcooking results, do not removethe lid during cooking, sincethis will lose heat and thereforeslow down the cooking time.The glass lid allows you tomonitor the cooking progresswithout interrupting the cookingtime.
Suitable foods forslow cooking
Most foods are suited to slowcooking methods, howeverthere are a few guidelines thatneed to be followed.
Make sure all frozen ingredientsare well thawed out.
Cut root vegetables into small,even pieces, as they take longerto cook than meat. They shouldbe gently sauteed for 2-3minutes before slow cooking.Ensure that root vegetables arealways placed at the bottom of
the pot and all ingredients areimmersed in the cooking liquid.
Trim all excess fat from meatbefore cooking, since the slowcooking method does not allowfat to evaporate.
If adapting an existing recipefrom conventional cooking, youmay need to cut down on theamount of liquid used. Liquidwill not evaporate from the slowcooker to the same extent aswith conventional cooking.
Never leave uncooked food atroom temperature in the slowcooker.
Do not use the slow cooker toreheat food.
Uncooked red beans must besoaked and boiled for at least10 minutes to remove toxinsbefore use in a slow cooker.
Insert a meat thermometer intojoints of roasts, hams, or wholechickens to ensure they arecooked to the desiredtemperature.
Dos and do notsfor the ceramic pot
Authentic stoneware is fired athigh temperatures, therefore,the ceramic pot may have minorsurface blemishes, the glass lidmay rock slightly due to theseimperfections. Low heatcooking does not producesteam, so there will be littleheat loss. Due to normal wearand tear through the productslife, the outer surface may startappearing crazed.
Do not put the ceramic pot orglass lid in an oven, freezer,
microwave or on a gas /electrical hob.
Do not pre-heat before addingingredients.
Do not subject the ceramic potto sudden changes intemperature. Adding cold waterto a very hot pot could cause itto crack.
Do not allow the pot to stand inwater for a long time (you canleave water in the pot to soak).There is an area on the base ofthe ceramic pot that has toremain unglazed formanufacturing purposes. This
unglazed area is porous,therefore will soak up water, thisshould be avoided.
Do not switch the slow cookeron when the ceramic pot isempty or out of the base.

Tips for slowcooking
The slow cooker must be at leasthalf full for best results.
Slow cooking retains moisture. Ifyou wish to reduce this, removethe lid after cooking and turn thecontrol to high (if set to low ormedium) and reduce themoisture by simmering for 30 to45 minutes.
Removing the lid will allowvaluable heat to escape,reducing the efficiency of yourslow cooker and increasing the
cooking time. If you remove thelid more than a couple of timesto stir or add ingredients, thenyou will need to allow 10-15minutes extra cooking time eachtime you remove the lid.
If cooking soups, leave 5 cmspace between the top of thecook pot and the food surface toallow for simmering.
Many recipes will take severalhours to cook. If you dont havetime to prepare food in themorning, prepare it the nightbefore, storing the food in acovered container in the fridge.Transfer the food to the ceramic
pot and add boiling liquid/stock.In most of the recipes in thisbook, the meat ingredients arebrowned first to improve theirappearance and flavour.
If you are short on preparationtime and would prefer to skip thebrowning stage, simply add yourmeat and other ingredients intothe slow cooker and cover withboiling liquid/stock. You will needto increase the recipe cookingtime as follows: High setting+1hr, Medium setting +1-2hrs,Low Setting +2-3hrs.
Most meat and vegetable recipesrequire 8-10 hours on low, 5-7hours on medium and 4-6 hourson high.
Do not use frozen meat orpoultry unless it is thoroughlythawed out first.
Some ingredients are notsuitable for slow cooking.Pasta, seafood, milk, and cream
should be added towards theend of the cooking time. Manythings can affect how quickly arecipe will cook, water and fatcontent, initial temperature ofthe food and the size of thefood.
Pieces of food cut into smallpieces will cook quicker.A degree of tr ial and error willbe required to fully optimise thepotential of your slow cooker.
Vegetables usually take longerto cook than meat, so try andarrange vegetables in the lowerhalf of the pot.
After food is cooked, switch offand leave covered with the lid.There will be enough heat in theceramic pot to keep warm for30 minutes. If you require longerto keep warm, switch to the lowsetting.
All food should be covered witha liquid, gravy or sauce. In aseparate pan or jug, prepareyour liquid, gravy or sauce andcompletely cover the food in theceramic pot.
Pre-brown meat and onions in apan to seal in the juices, thisalso reduces the fat content if
separated before adding to theceramic pot. This is notnecessary if the time is limited,but improves the flavour.
When cooking joints of meat,ham, poultry etc, the size andshape of the joint is important.Try to keep the joint in the lower2/3 of the pot and fully coverwith water. If necessary, cut intotwo pieces. Joint weight shouldbe kept within the maximumlimit: 1 kg for a medium sizedslow cooker, and 1.5 kg for alarge sized slow cooker.
COOKING GUIDEThe cooking times given in thefollowing recipes are for theMEDIUM setting. Should youwant to increase or reduce thetime, please refer to thecooking guide.A Please notethat these cooking times are forguidance only and may varydepending on food type andpersonal tastes. For yourconvenience, a conversion tablefor weight and volume has beenincluded on page 19.
Eg. If the recipe says cook for4-6 hours (MED) and yourequire this to be a shorter time,
cook on HIGH, which willreduce the cooking time to 3-4hours. Increasing the time,choose LOW which will give 6-8hours.
The recipes are based onMAXIMUM WORKINGVOLUMES which are:
6.5 litres: Working capacity of4.5 litres / 8 pts. This allows a3cm space between the top ofthe ceramic pot and the food.
3.5 litres: Working capacity of2.5 litres / 41/2 pts. This allows a2cm space between the top ofthe ceramic pot and the food.
NOTE: THE CAPACITY CAN BEFOUND ON THE RATINGPLATE UNDERNEATH THEPRODUCT.
