Set-Up and Use

First use

• When unpacking the lava stone cooker, carefully remove all clamping assembly parts from the box.
• We recommend cleaning the cooking surface before the first use.

A new cooker may smoke slightly during the first use. To minimize smoking, allow the stone to heat for approximately 10 minutes, and then cool for approximately 1/2 hour.

Regular use

• Place the cooker on a flat surface.
• Unroll the cord completely.
• Plug in the cooker and turn on the switch; the orange indicator will light up.
• Allow the stone to heat for 20 - 30 minutes.
• Grease the stone lightly after preheating and just before starting cooking.
• (optional) Salt the stone generously before putting food on it.
• Place the food on the stone and turn over halfway through cooking.
• During the meal, scrape the stone with a scraper wire brush at any time to remove food residue stuck to the stone and then grease again lightly afterward.

Maintenance

Always unplug the cooker and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.

• Stone: Scrape the stone using a scraper wire brush to remove as much food residue as possible. Clean the stone's surface using a sponge and hot water only, without dish detergent. Use of steel wool or a scouring pad is optional but could dull the stone's appearance slightly (this has no effect on cooker performance). Dry the stone thoroughly before setting it back into the base for storage (to minimize the chance of condensation or oxydation).
• Wooden parts: simply wipe with a damp sponge and then dry thoroughly with a dry cloth.
• Metal tray: lift out the element and wipe using a damp sponge and a little detergent; rinse, again using the sponge, and then dry thoroughly with a dry cloth.
• Element: this should not generally require cleaning. Should cleaning ever be required, use a stiff-bristled brush.

Take care not to allow any electrical parts to come into contact with water.

Never submerge the cooker in water.

Tips and Recipes \_\_\_\_

Lava-stone cooking is an excellent method for preparing foods as part of a light, balanced diet focussing on healthy, all-natural meals because it helps to preserve foods' natural flavours and vitamins. The stone absorbs heat and transfers it to the food in a gradual, uniform manner during cooking.

Ideal ingredients for a 'lava-stone night' include:

Meats (preferably less fatty cuts)

Beef: filets or steak. Veal: cutlets, filets. Poultry: cutlets, filets, sliced chicken or turkey, duck aglets or filets. Pork: filets, roast, ribs, bacon.

Fish: any filet or sliced fish (e.g., salmon).

Shellfish: langoustines, crayfish, coquilles St. Jacques, scallops, prawns, etc.

Vegetables: sliced mushroom gills, onion rings, finely sliced courgettes or green or red peppers to add flavour and visual interest, halved cherry tomatoes, etc.

Side dishes: sauces, mayonnaise, lemon, harissa, persillade, garlic, curry, herbes de Provence, etc.

Fruit: bananas, apples, pears, etc.

Preparing meats and fish:

Meats: cut meat into thin slices 0.5 - 1 cm thick and 2 - 4 cm wide.

Fish: cut filets into strips 2 - 4 cm wide. You can also make mini-brochettes on wood skewers; to do this, cut the meat or fish into 1.5 cm cubes.

Chef's secret:

Vegetables take longer to cook than meat, so start all vegetables cooking on the stone first. After a few minutes, move them to one corner to make room for the meat.

Cooking with the lava stone is a social activity! Have fun and let your imagination go in inventing new recipes. The following are a few suggestions for original recipes to get you started.

Note that the lava stone cooker is not designed to replace an electric or charcoal grill. You should not attempt to use your cooker to prepare very thick cuts of meat or whole fish.
