RICE, GRAINS AND CEREALS
To cook grains and cereals in the Avance® HealthSmart® Steamer, follow these simple suggestions:
Place measured grains or cereal plus waster, as shown in the chart below, into the rice/sauce
cooking bowl.
Place the rice/sauce cooking bowl into a steamer basket.
Cover with lid and set the steamer to the required steaming time.
For softer grains or cereals slightly increase water quantity and cook a little longer.
VARIETY METHOD APPROX COOKING TIME
Oats 1 cup rolled oats with 2 cups water into
rice/sauce cooking bowl
15 minutes
Cracked Wheat 1 cup cracked wheat with 1 ½ cups of water.
Place into rice/sauce cooking bowl
12 minutes
When steaming for a longer time ensure the water reservoir is filled to the maximum MAX level on the water
window before operation commences. During the longer cooking time ensure the water does not fall below
the minimum MIN level. However, do not refill to the MAX level during operation. Allow the water to reach
the MIN level then add extra water to align with the TOP-UP level on the water window. (This may need to
be repeated when steaming for extended periods of time). Do not refill past the TOP-UP line when the food
steamer is in operation.
