Slow Cook Settings
HOW TO SLOW COOK
SEAR setting
The multi cooker has two slow cook settings:
Low and High. Use the recommended
guidelines below to determine cooking time
and heat settings and use recipes in this
instruction book. Dishes can be prepared
well in advance and cooking time regulated
so that food is ready to serve at a convenient
time.
Searing in the multi cooker may take a little
extra time and whilst not strictly necessary,
the rewards are evident in the end result.
The cooking bowl keeps the heat stable
and uniform allowing the meat to brown
and form an even crust. Plus searing seals
in the moisture, intensifies the flavour and
provides more tender results.
A general rule of thumb for most slow
cooked meat and vegetable recipes is:
1. Ensure exterior of the removable
cooking bowl is clean before placing it
in the housing (this will ensure proper
contact with the inner cooking surface).
Setting Cooking Time
LOW: 6-7 hours
HIGH: 3-4 hours
Your favourite traditional recipes can also
be easily adapted to this slow cooker. Simply
halve the amount of liquid and increase the
cooking time..
2. Plug power cord into a 230V or 240V
power outlet. The START|CANCEL
button and RISOTTO button surround
will illuminate in white.
3. Press the SAUTÉ|SEAR button, the
button surround will illuminate white.
Press the START|CANCEL button to
activate the setting, the button surround
will illuminate red.
NOTE
These cooking times are approximates
only and times can vary depending
on ingredients, quantities in recipes
and whether the cooking bowl and its
ingredients are hot from searing.
4. Cover with lid and allow to pre-heat
for approximately 2-3 minutes (do not
preheat for longer than 5 minutes).
5. Add oil/butter and allow to heat/melt for
approximately 1 minute with the lid on.
As a guide meats such as chicken or small
pieces of meat will have best results when
cooked on high for 3-4 hours.
6. Always sear meat and poultry in small
batches. Cover with lid and cook,
stirring occasionally until food is evenly
browned. Remove from cooking bowl.
When finished searing, proceed to the
Slow Cook Settings section below.
Larger pieces of meat such as lamb shanks
will have best results when cooked on low
for 6-7 hours.
Cooking Times (with Searing)
When the SAUTÉ|SEAR setting is used
prior to slow cooking, cooking times will
be shortened slightly. Check for doneness
intermittently during cooking.

OPERATING yOUR BREvILLE MULTI CHEF™
Low or High Slow Cook Settings
PREPARING MEAT ANd POULTRy
1. Add all ingredients into the cooking
bowl, ensuring denser foods are spread
evenly across the bottom of the bowl
and not heaped to one side and the
liquid level is between MIN and MAX
markings on the bowl.
Select the freshest cuts when purchasing
meat. Trim the meat or poultry of any visible
excess fat. If possible, purchase chicken
portions without the skin. Otherwise, the
slow cooking process will result in extra
liquid being formed from the fat as it melts.
For casserole type recipes, cut the meat into
cubes, approximately 4cm to 5cm. Slow
cooking allows less tender cuts of meat
to be used. The bones can be left in meat
or poultry. This imparts a good flavour
and helps to keep the meat tender during
cooking.
2. Place the glass lid into position.
3. Press the LOW SLOW COOK OR HIGH
SLOW COOK button, then press the
START|CANCEL button to activate the
setting. The START|CANCEL button
surround will illuminate red and cooking
will commence.
4. Allow to cook until the ready beeps
sound. The unit then automatically
switches to KEEP WARM setting.
SUITABLE MEAT CUTS FOR SLOW
COOKING
Beef chuck, skirt, round steak, boneless shin
(gravy) beef, bone-in-shin (osso bucco), tri
tip.
Lamb shanks, drumsticks (frenched shanks),
neck chops, boned out forequarter or
shoulder.
Veal diced leg, shoulder/forequarter chops
and steaks, neck chops, knuckle (osso
bucco).
Pork leg steaks, diced belly, diced shoulder,
boneless loin chops.
5. The multi cooker will remain on the
KEEP WARM setting for 5 hours before
switching OFF.
The Breville Multi Chef is designed
specifically for flavour layering. A technique
professional chefs use to enhance and
deepen the taste of meals by using the same
pan for browning onions, searing meats
and creating casseroles, curries, soups and
bolognaise.
For this reason, Breville have now developed
a SLOW COOK with a SAUTÉ|SEAR
setting to caramelise vegetables and sear
meats before commencing the slow cooker
function.
Chicken pieces bone in (thigh cutlets/
drumsticks).
Chicken thigh fillets.
Following is a guide to help simplify the
process of slow cooking, allowing you to
obtain optimum results from your multi
cooker. We have also included helpful hints
for successful slow cooking. For recipes, go
this instruction book.
PREPARING vEGETABLES
Vegetables should be cut into even-sized
pieces to ensure more even cooking. Frozen
vegetables must be thawed before adding to
other foods cooking in the multi cooker.
