User Guide – Cooker

Choice of saucepans

For best results we recommend the use of good quality saucepans with smooth flat bases. Aluminium pans with coloured vitreous enameled bases absorb heat and are therefore more efficient in use.

Never use recessed or ridged base utensils. Ideally the base of the saucepan should be approximately the same size as the heating area. Use pans which have sufficient capacity for the amount of food being cooked and therefore reduce soiling caused by excessive spillage.

Never fill the pan more than the one-third full of fat or oil.

Never leave oil unattended during the heating or cooking period.

Keep the outside of the pan clean and free from streaks of fat.
