rice or if not mixed properly, scorching
or imperfect cooking may occur.
The recommended amount of
ingredients should be about 30-50%

about 5.3 oz.) Chop ingredients into
small pieces and place on top of the

Limit the amount of rice to be
cooked to 1-4 cups for the 1.0L
model, or 2-6 cups for the 1.8L
