• Never operate the Kambrook Profile Slow
Cooker without the removable crockery bowl
positioned in the stainless steel housing.
OPERATING YOUR KAMBROOK
PROFILE SLOW COOKER
• Always have the glass lid correctly positioned
on the removable crockery bowl throughout
operation of the appliance unless when stated
in a recipe to have it removed.
• Always use dry oven mitts to remove the
removable crockery bowl when hot.
• Do not place the removable crockery bowl
when hot on any surface that may be affected
by heat.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Remove and safely discard any packaging
material and promotional labels before using the
appliance for the first time.
Wash the removable crockery bowl and glass lid
in hot, soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly.
Wipe the interior and exterior of the stainless
steel housing with a damp cloth then dry
thoroughly. Ensure the interior of the stainless
steel housing is clean and clear of any debris.
CAUTION: ALWAYS LIFT AND
REMOVE THE GLASS LID CAREFULLY
AND ANGLED AWAY FROM YOURSELF
TO AVOID SCALDING FROM
ASSEMBLY AND OPERATION
1. Before placing the removable crockery
bowl in the stainless steel housing, ensure
the exterior of the bowl is clean. This
will ensure proper contact with the inner
cooking surface.
ESCAPING STEAM.
USING THE TEMPERATURE
CONTROL SETTINGS
2. Place the prepared food into the removable
crockery bowl, ensuring denser foods are
spread evenly across the bottom of the
bowl and not heaped to one side. Ensure the
food and/or liquid fills at least ½ to 3⁄4 of the
removable crockery bowl. Place the glass lid
into position.
LOW SETTING
The LOW setting gently simmers food for an
extended period of time without overcooking or
burning. Generally no stirring is required when
using this setting.
3. Insert the removable crockery bowl into the
HIGH SETTING
stainless steel housing.
The HIGH setting is used when cooking dried
beans or pulses and will cook food in half the
time required for the LOW Setting. Some foods
may boil when cooked on the HIGH Setting,
so it may be necessary to add extra liquid. This
will depend on the recipe and the amount of
time in which it is cooked. Occasional stirring
of stews and casseroles will improve the flavour
distribution.
4. Ensure the temperature control dial is in the
OFF position then insert the power plug into
a 230/240V power outlet and switch on at
the power outlet.
5. Select the required setting using
the temperature control dial or as
recommended in the recipe section.
6. When cooking is complete turn the
temperature control dial to the OFF
position, switch off at the power outlet and
then unplug the power cord.
AUTO SETTING
The AUTO setting combines the features of the
HIGH and LOW settings by heating the food at
a higher temperature for the first 2-3 hours of
cooking then gradually reduces the temperature
to a lower temperature for the remaining
cooking time.
7. Allow the Kambrook Profile Slow Cooker to
cool completely before cleaning and storing.
IMPORTANT
• Always use the Kambrook Profile Slow
Cooker on a dry, level surface.
• Never operate the Kambrook Profile
Slow Cooker without food and liquid in
the removable crockery bowl. Ensure the
removable crockery bowl is at least ½ to 3⁄4
full of food and/or liquid before switching on
the appliance.

Adapting Liquid Amounts
BEGINNER’S GUIDE TO SLOW
COOKING
When food is cooking in your Kambrook Profile
Slow Cooker most moisture is retained. To
allow for this when using traditional recipes it is
advisable to halve the liquid content.
In years gone by, food cooked in large pots
and allowed to simmer for hours was full of
flavour, moist and tender. The Kambrook Profile
Slow Cooker is designed to produce these
same results, whilst leaving you the time to do
other things, making it perfect for today’s busy
lifestyles.
However, after cooking if the liquid quantity
is excessive, remove the lid and operate the
Kambrook Profile Slow Cooker on the HIGH
Setting for 30-45 minutes or until the liquid
reduces by the desired amount. Alternatively,
the liquid can be thickened by adding a mixture
of cornflour and water.
Here is a guide to help simplify the process of
slow cooking, allowing you to obtain maximum
satisfaction from your Kambrook Profile Slow
Cooker:
Stirring the food
Little or no stirring is required when using the
LOW Setting. However, stirring the food when
using the HIGH setting ensures more even
flavour distribution.
Timing
Always allow sufficient time for the food to
cook. It is almost impossible to overcook in the
Kambrook Profile Slow Cooker particularly
when using the LOW Setting.
Preparing Meat and Poultry
Most of the recipes contained within this book
can be cooked on the HIGH or LOW setting,
however the cooking times will vary accordingly.
Each recipe will give specific instructions
indicating the appropriate settings and suggested
cooking times.
Select the leanest cuts when purchasing meat.
Trim the meat or poultry of any visible fat. If
possible, purchase chicken portions without the
skin. Otherwise, the slow cooking process will
result in extra liquid being formed from the fat
as it melts.
For casserole-type recipes, cut the meat into
cubes, approximately 2.5cm to 3cm. Slow
cooking allows less tender cuts of meat to be
used.
Adapting Cooking Times
Your favourite traditional recipes can be adapted
easily by halving the amount of liquid and
increasing the cooking time considerably. The
following is a guide to adjusting your favourite
recipes:

Browning before slow cooking
Pot Roasting
Pre-browning meat and poultry, prior to slow
cooking, seals in the moisture, intensifies the
flavour and provides more tender results, whilst
producing richer flavours in other food, such as
onions, capsicums and leeks. Pre-browning may
take a little extra time, and whilst not strictly
necessary, the rewards are evident in the end
results. Use a non-stick pan to reduce the
amount of oil required.
The addition of liquid is required for pot
roasting. Place sufficient liquid into the
removable crockery bowl to cover up to a third
of the meat. Meat will not brown during the pot
roasting process. For browner results, seal in a
frypan before pot roasting.
Suitable Cuts for Pot Roasting
Beef
Beef Topside, Blade, Silverside
Roasts, Rolled Brisket.
Roasting
Lamb Forequarter, Shank, Shoulder
Veal Shoulder/Forequarter.
Roasting meats in the Kambrook Profile Slow
Cooker creates tender, flavoursome results
that are easy to slice. The long, slow, covered
cooking process breaks down and softens the
connective and muscle tissue within the meat.
Cheaper cuts of meat can be used to provide
perfect results cooked by this method.
Pork Loin, Neck.
Preparing vegetables
Vegetables should be cut into even-sized pieces
to ensure more even cooking. Frozen vegetables
must be thawed before adding to other foods
for cooking in the Kambrook Profile Slow
Cooker.
Meat will not brown during the roasting process,
so for browner results seal in a frypan before
roasting.
The addition of liquid is not required for
roasting. Elevate the meat to be roasted on an
inverted, heatproof saucer or plate. This will
assist in keeping the surface of the meat dry
and free from any fat released throughout the
cooking process.
Preparing dried beans and pulses
If time permits, overnight soaking of dried
beans and pulses is preferable. After soaking,
drain the beans or pulses then place into the
removable crockery bowl then pour in water
that is double the volume of beans. Ensure the
removable crockery bowl is at least ½ to 3⁄4 full.
Cook beans on the HIGH Setting for 2-4 hours
or until tender. Pre-soaked beans and pulses will
cook a little faster.
Whole fresh chickens can be roasted but if
chickens that have been frozen and thawed
are used they may release a significant amount
of liquid into the removable crockery bowl
whereby the chicken is pot-roasted or steamed
in this liquid.
Suitable Cuts for Roasting
Beef
Blade, Rump, Rib Roast, Sirloin, Fresh
Silverside, Topside.
