HOW TO USE THE STEAM FUNCTION

You can use this appliance as a stand alone steamer or you can cook rice at the same time as steaming
food. If steaming whilst cooking rice, you would use one of the rice functions and add the steaming
basket to the inner bowl. You can steam different types of food in the steaming basket.
Here is a guide for estimated cooking different types of food on the 'STEAM' function:
INGREDIENTS
Carrot
Broccoli
Spinach
Pumpkin
Potato
Sweet Potato
Corn
Chicken
Fish (white fish
and salmon)
Prawn
Scallop
Refrigerated Meat
Dumpling
Frozen Meat
Dumpling
IMPORTANT - Do not steam food over 3.5cm thick.
If you would like to combine cooking rice with steaming, it is recommended that 1 cup of rice is the
maximum capacity you can cook. Any more than this, there is a danger as the rice cooks, the steaming
basket will push into the lid and pop it open.
If cooking rice and steaming at the same time, you can open the lid (very carefully, minding the steam
that is released from the unit) to add the steaming basket part way through the cooking cycle so the
vegetables are not over-cooked.
