Steaming Vegetables - Breville VTP113 Instruction Booklet

steaming vegetables

Make sure your rice, risotto and pasta cooker is switched off, unplugged at
the mains supply socket and is fully cooled before assembling or disassembling.
During use the glass lid, removable bowl, steamer tray and cooker body will get
very hot. Always handle with care and use oven gloves.
Always check that the vegetables are thoroughly cooked before serving.
1. Place the removable bowl inside your rice, risotto and pasta cooker's base. Ensure
the bowl is positioned correctly before continuing.
2. Use the supplied measure, add a minimum of 3 measures of water and a maximum
of 6 measures of water. Don't under or over fill your rice, risotto and pasta cooker as
it may be damaged.
3. Fit the steamer tray. Add the vegetables to the steamer tray. Make sure that some
of the steam holes in the steamer tray remain uncovered to allow the steam to
penetrate the vegetables. Don't overfill the steamer tray otherwise the vegetables
may be unevenly cooked.
4. Place the glass lid onto your rice, risotto and pasta cooker.
5. Plug your rice, risotto and pasta cooker into a suitable mains supply socket. The
cooker will beep and all of the mode lights will light up briefly then go out again.
6. Use the mode selector button to select RICE. The RICE light will flash for a few
seconds then a beep will sound and the light will remain lit.
Unless your recipe states otherwise, avoid removing the lid before the cooking time has
elapsed. Removing the lid unnecessarily will result in a loss of steam and the cooking
time will need to be extended.
Steam the vegetables for the appropriate time. For cooking times see the steam cooking
guide on page 14.
If your rice, risotto and pasta cooker is left unattended, it will automatically switch to the
WARM mode. If further steaming is required ensure there is sufficient water in the bowl.
Add more water or stock as required and replace the steaming tray and glass lid.
After use
To switch off your cooker when cooking is finished, press the mode selector switch
several times until all of the mode lights go out. Unplug your rice, risotto and pasta cooker
from the supply socket. Note that your rice, risotto and pasta cooker will switch off
automatically approximately 2.5 hours after entering the keep warm mode.
