• Once the food is boiling, reduce the temperature.
• Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining the heat
• Minimize the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.
• Start cooking on a high setting and reduce the setting when the food has heated
through.
Simmering, cooking rice
• Simmering occurs below boiling point, at around 85 °C, when bubbles are just
rising occasionally to the surface of the cooking liquid. It is the key to delicious
soups and tender stews because flavors develop without overcooking the food. You
should also cook egg-based and flour thickened sauces below boiling point.
• Some tasks, including cooking rice by the absorption method, may require a setting
higher than the lowest setting to ensure the food is cooked properly in the time
recommended.
Searing steak
• Stand the meat at room temperature for about 20 minutes before cooking.
• Heat up a heavy-based frying pan.
• Brush both sides of the steak with oil. Drizzle a small amount of oil into the hot pan
and then lower the meat onto the hot pan.
• Turn the steak only once during cooking. The exact cooking time will depend on
the thickness of the steak and how cooked you want it. Times may vary from about
2-8 minutes per side. Press the steak to gauge how cooked it is – the firmer it feels
the more 'well done' it will be.
• Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to allow it to relax and
become tender before serving.
