Rice Cooking

Measuring the ingredients -

Max capacity of the bowl

• The graduated markings on the inside of the bowl are given in

litres and cups, these are used for measuring the amount of

water when cooking rice – Fig.11.

•

The plastic cup provided with your appliance is for measuring rice

and the table states the quantity of rice required for the number

of servings. 1 level measuring cup of rice weighs about 150 g.

•

For best results, we recommend using ordinary rice rather than

easy cook

type rice which tends to give a stickier rice and may

adhere to the base.

• To cook 1 cup of white rice (serves 2 small or 1 large portion),

use 1 measuring cup of white rice and then add one and a half

measuring cup of water. With some types of rice it is normal for

a little rice to stick on the base when cooking 1 cup of rice. For

best results cook 2 or more cups of rice.

• The maximum quantity of water + rice should not exceed the

10 cup mark inside the bowl – Fig.11.

•The cooking times given in the tables are only approximate and

for your guidance.

• Place the appliance on a flat, stable, heat-resistant work surface

away from water splashes and any other sources of heat.

• Measure the rice using the plastic measuring cup provided and

rinse thoroughly in cold water before cooking.

•

Pour the rice into the bowl. Then fill with cold water up to the

corresponding

CUP

mark printed in the bowl (See cooking guide

below) – Fig.12.

• Close the lid.

Note: Always add the rice first otherwise you will have too

much water.

The rice cooker itself

determines the exact

cooking time

depending on the

quantity of water and

ingredients placed in

the bowl (see cooking

table below for a guide

to times).

Some recommendations

for best results when cooking rice

• Measure out the rice and rinse it thoroughly under running

water in a sieve for a long time (except for risotto rice which

should not be rinsed). Then place the rice in the bowl

together with the corresponding quantity of water.

• Make sure that the rice is well distributed around the whole

surface of the bowl, in order to allow even cooking.

• Add salt to your personal taste if required.

• Water may be substituted for stock. If using stock, there is

the risks of rice browning a bit on the bottom.

• Do not open the lid during cooking as steam will escape and

this will affect the cooking time and the taste.
