Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions.

Sunbeam are very safety conscious when

designing and manufacturing consumer products,

but it is essential that the product user also

exercise care when using an electrical appliance.

Listed below are precautions which are essential

for the safe use of an electrical appliance:

• Read carefully and save all the instructions

provided with an appliance.

• Always turn the power off at the power outlet

before you insert or remove a plug. Remove by

grasping the plug - do not pull on the cord.

• Turn the power off and remove the plug when

the appliance is not in use and before cleaning.

• Do not use your appliance with an extension

cord unless this cord has been checked and

tested by a qualified technician or service

person.

• Always use your appliance from a power outlet

of the voltage (A.C. only) marked on the

appliance.

• Close supervision is necessary when your

appliance is being used near children or infirm

persons.

• Never leave an appliance unattended while in

use.

• Young children should be supervised to ensure

that they do not play with the appliance.

• Do not use an appliance for any purpose other

than its intended use.

• Do not place an appliance on or near a hot gas

flame, electric element or on a heated oven.

Do not place on top of any other appliance.

• Do not let the power cord of an appliance

hang over the edge of a table or bench top or

touch any hot surface.

• For safety reasons and to avoid maintenance by

unskilled persons, some appliances are ‘sealed’

using tamperproof screws. Such appliances

should always be returned to the nearest

Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre for

adjustment or repair if required.

• Do not operate any electrical appliance with a

damaged cord or after the appliance has been

dropped or damaged in any manner. If damage

is suspected, return the appliance to the

nearest Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre for

examination, repair or adjustment.

• For additional protection, Sunbeam

recommend the use of a residual current device

(RCD) with a tripping current not exceeding

30mA in the electrical circuit supplying power

to your appliances.

• Do not immerse the appliance in water or any

other liquid unless recommended.

• Use well away from walls and curtains.

Congratulations on the purchase of your

Sunbeam Pie Magic Four pie maker.

Now you and the whole family can make golden

brown, crispy pies at home, using your choice of

delicious and imaginative fillings.

You will be amazed at the variety of pies you

can make, such as savoury mince, chicken, beef,

pork, vegetable and seafood pies, as well as fruit

and sweet pies.

Your Sunbeam Pie Magic Four is so versatile you

can even make muffins, cup cakes, quiches,

cheesecakes, and egg and bacon snacks.

The 101 Pie Ideas in this book are just a start.

With your Sunbeam Pie Magic Four, you can turn

any ingredients, left-overs or convenience

canned food into delicious pies - great for

appetisers, meals, desserts, supper or snacks.

Make up to four perfect pies every time ...

it’s magic!

Note: During cooking, you may notice a

whistling sound. This is normal and is due to

steam escaping from the pies.

For excellent results, Sunbeam recommends the

use of Pampas ready rolled pastries.

For New Zealand, Sunbeam recommends the

use of Irvines ready rolled pastries. Please

substitute Irvines wherever Pampas has been

used in this book.

An Introduction to your Sunbeam

Pie Magic Four.

Securing latch.

Holds the pie maker closed to seal the pies.

Deep-dish, non-stick plates.

Makes generous, high-top pies with extra filling.

The four non-stick plates are easy to clean and

allow the pies to be easily removed from the pie

maker. You can make up to four perfect pies

every time.

Rubber feet.

Hold the pie maker firmly in place and prevent it

from scratching the benchtop.

Power ON light.

Indicates that the pie maker is on and heating.

Storage stand and cord wrap.

The pie maker stores conveniently in an upright

position, saving bench and cupboard space. The

cord wraps neatly around the base.

Edge crimper.

Seals the pies and gives them a decorative trim.

Pastry cutters.

The special cutters are for cutting the pastry tops

and bases of your pies. The small cutter (95mm)

is for the pastry top and the large cutter

(120mm) is for the pastry base.

Before using your pie maker for the first time,

the non-stick plates must be seasoned to protect

the non-stick surface.

Plug the power cord into a 230/240 volt power

outlet and turn the power ON. Pre-heat the pie

maker for 5 minutes. Season the plates by

applying a thin coat of cooking oil, butter or

margarine onto the surface and rub in with

paper towelling.

After this initial seasoning, there is no need to

season the-plates after each use as the pastry

leaves the plates slightly seasoned.

Note: When using your pie maker for the first

time, you may notice a fine smoke haze being

emitted. This is normal and is due to the initial

heating of the internal components.

Before using your pie maker.

What type of pastry can be used?

There is a wide selection of ready rolled pastry

available in your supermarket freezer, such as

shortcrust, puff, butter puff and wholemeal

pastry. These pastries give great results and are

handy to keep in your freezer.

We recommend that you use Pampas Puff Pastry

for your pastry top combined with a Pampas

Shortcrust Pastry base, for best results.

However, shortcrust pastry or puff pastry can be

used for both the tops and bases of your pies.

For a light and more buttery taste, use Pampas

Butter Puff Pastry for your pastry top, combined

with a shortcrust pastry base. This combination is

ideal for desserts. Homemade pastry can also be

used. A recipe for homemade pastry is on page 12.

Pre-heat the pie maker for 5 minutes, and

defrost your frozen ready rolled pastry while

preparing your pies.

Cutting the pastry.

Use the special Pie cutters provided to cut the

pastry tops and bases for your pies. The small

cutter is for the top and the large cutter is for

the base.

To cut your pastry pieces, position the cutter on

a flat sheet of pastry and cut by pressing down

into the pastry. Ensure the cut is smooth around

the edges.

Make two 30mm slits in the pastry base to make

it easier to place it in the pie maker. See Figure 1.

Note: Each sheet of Pampas ready rolled pastry

is enough for 5 pastry tops or 4 pastry bases,

although more can be made by using leftover

pieces. One packet of ready rolled Pampas pastry,

is sufficient to make approximately 10 pies.

Making pies in your pie maker.

Figure 1.

Placing the pastry base in the pie maker.

Overlap the slits by 15mm each and place into

the pre-heated pie maker. Press the slits to

ensure they are joined properly.

Adding the filling.

Any ingredients you have in your kitchen, left-

overs and canned food make tempting pie

fillings.

Pre-cook your pie fillings, particularly if using

fresh meat or vegetable ingredients. Ingredients

such as fruit and canned food can be used

without pre-cooking.

Ensure all ingredients are cut into small and

even pieces to allow them to heat through.

Note: Do not use liquid ingredients such as

sauces, gravies and custard on their own or in

large amounts, as they will overflow and make

the pastry soggy. Always combine with solid

ingredients.

Spoon your pre-cooked filling into the pastry

base. As a general rule, use 1/3cup if the filling is

chunky, with less sauce and 1/4cup if the filling

has more sauce.

Note: Do not overfill your pies.

For 101 Pie Ideas and tempting pie fillings see

the recipe section of this book.

Cooking the pies.

Place the pastry tops over the filling and close

the lid. Cook the pies for approximately 6

minutes. If you prefer extra browning, we

recommend you cook for 8 minutes.

Note: During cooking you may notice a whistling

sound. This is due to steam escaping from the

pies.

Remove your pies using a plastic utensil. DO NOT

USE METAL UTENSILS AS THESE WILL SCRATCH

THE NON-STICK SURFACE. Wipe the plates clean

after making each pie.

Using left-over pastry.

Make more pies, garnishes and decorations

with the left-over pastry.

Lightly knead the left-over pieces into a ball

and roll out to approximately 3mm thick.

Hint: It is easier to roll pastry between 2 sheets

of grease proof paper.

To make garnishes and decorations, cut the

pastry into any shape, such as leaves.

Place the shape on the pastry top before

closing the lid.

Note: Pampas recommends that only shortcrust

ready rolled pastry be re-rolled. Also, keep the

pastry covered to prevent drying and cracking.

Pre-cutting pastry.

Pastry can be pre-cut and stored in the freezer so

that anyone can make pies at their convenience.

After cutting up the pastry, separate each piece

with a layer of plastic. Cover completely with

plastic and return to the freezer.

Making pies in your pie maker (cont).

Sunbeam Pie Magic Four is also ideal for making

muffins, cup cakes, quiches, cheesecakes and egg

& bacon snacks. See the recipe section of this

book for more ideas.

Note: When using a non-pastry base in your pie

maker it will be necessary to season the plates

with a little oil, butter or margarine each time to

prevent sticking.

Using bread.

Bread can be used as a substitute for pastry. The

best results are achieved using sandwich bread.

Avoid using toast style bread as it is too thick.

Cut the pie tops and bases using the cutters and

trim the crusts.

Spread one side of the bread with butter or

margarine. Make the pies as previously

instructed, with the buttered side of the bread

on the outside to prevent sticking. Cook for 6

minutes.

Hint: Avoid using liquid fillings as they tend to

make the bread soggy.

Other ideas for your pie maker.

Defrosting.

Room temperature: pies will defrost in

approximately 1 hour.

Microwave oven (700w): defrost each pie for

approximately 5 minutes on defrost setting.

Reheating.

Pie maker: Pre-heat the pie maker for 5 minutes

(or until the light goes off).

Thawed pies - heat for approximately

6-8 minutes.

Do not heat frozen pies in the pie maker.

Oven: Pre-heat oven to 180ºC.

Frozen pies - heat for 40-45 minutes.

Thawed pies - heat for 15-20 minutes.

Microwave oven (700w): Cook on high

for approximately 2 minutes per pie after

defrosting.

Note: The pastry will be soft and moist.

Defrosting and reheating pies.

Always use a plastic utensil to lift the pies from

the pie maker.

Do not use metal utensils as these will scratch

the non-stick surface.

To clean after use.

Always turn the power OFF and remove the plug

before cleaning.

Do not immerse the pie maker in water or any

other liquid.

Do not use abrasives or metal scourers as they

will scratch the non-stick plates and the exterior

surface.

To clean the non-stick plates.

Wipe over the plates with a dampened cloth.

To clean the exterior.

Wipe over with a dampened cloth and polish

with a soft dry cloth.

To clean cooked on stains.

Should your pie maker require additional

cleaning of stubborn build up and stains, the

following cleaning method is recommended:

Combine: 2 tablespoons bicarbonate of soda and

2 teaspoons bleach.

1. Pre-heat the pie maker for approximately

1-11/2minutes.

2. Turn the power OFF and remove the plug.

Brush the above paste solution onto the non-

stick surface. Allow to stand for 1-2 hours.

3. Using a soft, dampened sponge with a mild

household cleaner (not abrasive), vigorously

wipe the non-stick surface.

Clean in a well ventilated area and avoid

breathing in the vapours.

Before using your pie maker again, re-season the

non-stick surface by applying a little oil, butter or

margarine.

Storage.

The pie maker is designed for convenient

storage in an upright position saving you

valuable bench and cupboard space. The cord

wraps neatly around the base.
