Frequently Asked Questions - Egg Cooker & Mini Steamer DeLuxe 262028 PRINCESS

How many eggs can I cook at once?

You can cook up to 6 eggs at the same time. Use the measuring cup to add the right amount of water according to the number of eggs and desired doneness.

How to use the steam function?

Place the steaming tray on the egg holder, add water to the cooking plate (level according to the measuring cup instructions), arrange the food on the tray, close the lid and turn on the appliance. The audible signal indicates the end of cooking.

How to cook rice with this appliance?

Wash the rice and place it in the rice bowl. Add water up to 5 mm above the rice and let it soak for 15 minutes. Pour one cup of water (line 'hard 3') into the reservoir. Place the egg holder, then the bowl on top. Close the lid, turn on. Turn off when the signal sounds.

What to do if eggs crack during cooking?

To prevent eggs from cracking, pierce the base of each egg with the provided piercer (or a needle) before placing them in the holder. This allows steam to escape.

How to clean the appliance?

Always unplug the appliance. Clean the outside of the base with a damp cloth (never immerse). The accessories (holder, tray, bowl, measuring cup) can be washed in hot soapy water or in the dishwasher. Descale the cooking plate regularly with a water-vinegar mixture.

How to descale the cooking plate?

Pour a mixture of half water and half vinegar into the plate (without accessories). Boil for a few minutes, then empty and rinse. Repeat if necessary. This removes limescale deposits.

Why does the appliance emit a beep?

The beep indicates that all the water has evaporated and cooking is complete. Immediately turn off the appliance to avoid damage.

Can I cook frozen food?

Yes, but cooking time will be longer. Use the markings on the measuring cup for frozen food (column 'frozen'). Be careful and check doneness.

Is the appliance suitable for disabled persons?

Use by children or persons with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities may be dangerous. Close supervision or explicit instructions are necessary.

What if the appliance does not turn on?

Check that the power outlet is functional and that the cord is not damaged. Make sure the switch is pressed properly. If the problem persists, contact after-sales service.

5. Measuring cup
6. Rice container
   7.2 egg trays
7. OFF switch
8. ON switch with indicator light

The PRINCESS EGG COOKER & MINI STEAMER DELUXE is finished in brushed stainless steel. This fully automatic egg cooker with steamer function is suitable for boiling up to 6 eggs at once. When the food is ready the built-in buzzer will sound to indicate this. The egg cooker with steamer function has an on switch with indicator light, an off switch, an egg rack, a steam plate, a transparent lid, 2 egg trays, a rice container, and a measuring cup.

USING THE EGG COOKER

Prick a hole in the rounded ends of the eggs to be boiled. This stops the eggs from cracking. Fill the measuring cup with water up to the mark for the number of eggs you are boiling. Also allow for the hardness of the eggs (see the measuring cup). Pour the water on to the egg cooker hotplate. Note: the scale is for medium size eggs. If you want the eggs to be a little harder add a little more water. Use a little less water for softer eggs. Experiment until you have found the ideal quantity of water for yourself.

Put the egg rack on the bottom of the egg cooker. Put the eggs in the egg rack and then put the transparent lid on the appliance. The lid has holes to allow the steam produced while boiling to escape. Make sure these holes are kept uncovered!

Put the plug in the socket and switch on the appliance using the on/off switch. The buzzer will sound when all the water has evaporated. Switch the appliance off again. Take the lid off the appliance (N.B.: the lid will be hot!). Remove the eggs still in the rack using the handles and cool them rapidly in cold water.

Note: let the appliance cool down for 15 minutes before using it again.

This appliance is not only ideal for boiling eggs but also for steaming foods. Many variations are possible.

1. Use the measuring cup to pour water onto the hotplate.
2. Place the egg rack and the steam plate onto the metal container.

Position the steam plate in the centre of the egg rack so it can't become dislodged.

1. Place the food you wish to steam onto the steam plate.
2. Put the transparent lid on the appliance.

Please note: if the food is moist the dish may become watery. Ensure that the food does not touch the lid. If you follow these instructions your food will be steamed perfectly.

USING THE RICE COOKER

This appliance also has a special rice cooking function. It can be used to serve delicious steamed rice.

1. Put cleaned rice in rice container. Add water to about 5mm above the rice, and leave to soak for around 15 mins
2. Add a cup (hard 3 mark) of water to water reservoir. Attach egg rack
3. Attach the rice container to egg rack and close the lid
4. Insert the plug into the socket and turn on the appliance by pressing ON/OFF switch. Turn off the appliance when the buzzer sounds. You can now serve the rice.

Note: Certain types of rice may need a longer cooking time. Let the appliance cool down for 15 minutes before using it again.

Tips for using the mini steam cooker

One of the features of this device is that when steaming the volume of water may need to be increased. Never add more water than the hard 1 mark on the measuring cup.

• When using the steamer with frozen goods, the cooking times may vary depending on the amount of water that comes out of the food. Also, please note that steaming times may vary depending on the volume of food in the steamer.
• When the volume of food is small, increase the amount of water 1-2 gradations above the recommended amount.
• After cooking, first wait for 15 minutes before you begin cooking again.
• If you stop steaming before cooking has nished, turn the power off, and wait for the steam to settle down before opening the lid.

Be careful, the lid can be very hot.

CLEANING

FIRST UNPLUG THE CORD FROM THE SOCKET!

The outside of the base can be cleaned with a damp cloth (never immerse it in water or other liquid). The separate parts can also be wiped clean with a damp cloth. If necessary these can also be cleaned in soapy water. Remove any scale from the hotplate after each use. If the chalky deposits become worse the hotplate can be cleaned using a mixture of 50% water and 50% vinegar. When doing this do not put the egg rack and the lid on the appliance.

Plug the appliance in and boil the mixture for a few minutes. Repeat this a few times. Then clean the hotplate thoroughly with water.

STEAMED CHICKEN SALAD WITH SESAME SAUCE

Mushi Dori no Gomadare Salad

Sesame sauce using the juices from cooked chicken is so easy to prepare. This style of dressing with sesame (gomadare) is very common in Japanese cooking and is used for both meat and

vegetables. This particular chicken dish makes a lovely appetizer, but it also goes very well with cold noodles.

1 spring onion
salt and pepper
1 / 2 small cucumbers
70g boneless chicken thighs with skin
1 / 4 teaspoon sake
1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
small piece crushed ginger

For the Sesame Sauce:

1 teaspoon liquid made up from the juices of the cooked chicken (and water if necessary)
1 tablespoon sesame paste
1 / 2 tablespoon soy sauce
1 / 2 tablespoon superfine sugar
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
1 / 2 teaspoon chilli paste or to-ban-jan
1/2 tablespoon roughly ground sesame seeds
1/2 tablespoon nely shredded spring onions
1 / 2 teaspoon nely chopped ginger
1/2 teaspoon finely chopped garlic

1. Finely chop the spring onion diagonally, reserving the green part for use during cooking the chicken. Soak in cold water for a few minutes to remove the bitterness of the onion, then drain and put aside to use later.
2. On a chopping board, sprinkle the cucumbers with a few pinches of salt, rubbing it into the esh, then rinse. This lessens the aroma of the cucumber and gives it a good green colour. Hit the cucumbers with a pestle (if you don't have a pestle, use a bottle) and break it apart with your hands, to make uneven pieces.
3. Use the measuring cup to pour water into the metal container to hard 2 or medium 6. Pierce the chicken pieces with a skewer and place on the steam plate. Add the salt, pepper, and oil and then place the green part of the onion and the crushed ginger on top. Steam the chicken until cooked. Leave to cool. Keep the juice from the chicken to use in the sesame sauce.
4. Remove the chicken from the skewer and place in a serving dish. Mix in the cucumber and put the chopped onion on top.
5. Mix all the ingredients for the sesame sauce in a small bowl and pour over the chicken and cucumber.

Ingredients note:

Gomadare – meaning "dressed with sesame sauce" – can be made either with ready-made sesame paste or, more traditionally, by grinding toasted sesame seeds to a rough paste in a suribachi (pestle and mortar). Tahini, a Greek-style sesame paste is a reasonable and easily available substitute, but as it is not made from toasted sesame there is a slight difference in flavour. Unsweetened peanut butter is another possible substitute.
