4.1.2 Searing steak
To cook juicy flavorsome steaks:
1. Stand the meat at room temperature for about 20
minutes before cooking.
2. Heat up a heavy-based frying pan.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Leave the steak to rest on a warm plate for a few minutes
to allow it to relax and become tender before serving.
4.1.3 For stir-frying
1. Choose an induction compatible flat-based wok or a large
frying pan.
2. Have all the ingredients and equipment ready. Stir-frying
should be quick. If cooking large quantities, cook the food
in several smaller batches.
3. Preheat the pan briefly and add two tablespoons of oil.
4. Cook any meat first, put it aside and keep warm.
5. Stir-fry the vegetables. When they are hot but still crisp,
turn the cooking zone to a lower setting, return the meat
to the pan and add your sauce.
6. Stir the ingredients gently to make sure they are heated
through.
7. Serve immediately.
4.2 Detection of Small Articles
When an unsuitable size or non-magnetic pan (e.g.
aluminium), or some other small item (e.g. knife, fork, key)
has been left on the hob, the hob automatically go on to
standby in 1 minute. The fan will keep cooking down the
induction hob for a further 1 minute.
