HOW TO MAKE RISOTTO
SAUTÉ Setting
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).
2. Plug power cord into a 230-240-volt
power outlet and then switch the power
on at the power outlet, the warm light
will illuminate.
3. Press the MENU SELECTOR button to
the SAUTÉ setting. The red light will
flash for a few seconds, then the light
will permanently illuminate.
4. Cover with lid and allow to pre-heat for
approximately 2-3 minutes (do not pre-
heat for longer than 5 minutes).
5. Add oil/butter and allow to melt/heat for
approximately 1 minute.
6. If using chicken or seafood in the recipe,
sauté in small batches, cover with lid if
necessary and stir occasionally until food
is cooked. Remove from cooking bowl.
7. Add extra oil/butter to cooking bowl if
necessary or if recipe states. Allow to
heat for approximately 1 minute.
8. Add ingredients such as onions, garlic
and sauté, cover with lid if necessary and
stir occasionally for about 4 to 5 minutes
or until cooked to desired brownness.
9. Stir in Arborio or carnaroli rice and
mix well. Sauté for approximately 2-3
minutes, stirring occasionally.
10. Pour in wine (if using) and cook
uncovered until rice has absorbed all
liquid and alcohol has evaporated,
stirring frequently.

Cover with lid and press the MENU
SELECTOR button to the RISOTTO
setting. The red light will flash for a few
seconds, then the light will permanently
illuminate and cooking will commence.
3. Allow to cook, until Risotto & Rice™
automatically switches to the WARM
setting. This will take approximately 20-
30 minutes depending on the recipe.

serving spoon provided. At this stage
remaining ingredients can be added
i.e., butter, parmesan cheese, herbs,
salt and pepper.
5. The Risotto & Rice™ will remain on the
WARM setting for 30 minutes before
switching OFF. However, risotto is
best served as soon as possible after

WARM setting or switches Off before
cooking is complete. If this occurs,
simply press the MENU SELECTOR
button to the desired setting and
continue cooking. This is a safety
mechanism to prevent overheating
due to certain cooking conditions.
