Tefal RK302E15 Multicook 8-in-1 Multicooker, (4 Portions), 600 W, 5 Litre Silver

Product Information

The Instant Pot Pro is the best Instant Pot you can buy right now. It sets out to replace ten kitchen appliances including a pressure cooker, slow cooker, saute pan, rice cooker, steamer, yogurt maker, and warmer, and has 28 cooking modes for preparing different dishes. There's also a version that can air fry too, known as the Instant Pot Pro Crisp.

Precision is the name of the game with this multi-cooker, which has 11 cook presets, customizable settings, and eight pressure levels ranging from 1.5 to 12 psi. Lower pressure is great for more delicate foods, such as eggs, or anything likely to foam a lot, like rice. High pressure gives you fast results with tough cuts of meat, beans and rich broths. A panel of testers followed the instruction and recipe booklets provided to operate each multi cooker, rating each on instruction clarity, and usefulness of any recipes and cooking suggestions. We were impressed the Instant Pot Pro also has five buttons that allow you to store your favorite settings for recipes you make regularly, giving you the convenience of the one-touch programs but for your own custom recipes. Slow cooking: On the other end of the spectrum, multi-cookers can slow cook — a process that cooks food over low heat over the course of six to eight hours. This setting was a struggle for many early multi-cooker models, even some today, because multicookers tend to trap steam and don’t vent the way a true slow cooker does, resulting in overcooked food.

It’s a rice cooker, a slow cooker, a steamer and more!

OVEN SAFE TO 500 degree F: Removable cooking pot is oven safe up to 500 degree F, so you can finish your meal in the oven for a crispy top. Your appliance contains valuable materials which can be recovered or recycled. Leave it at a local civic waste collection point. Where can I buy accessories, consumables or spare parts for my appliance?We've tested the most popular brands, such as: Ninja multi cookers (including the Ninja Speedi and Ninja 15-in-1), Russell Hobbs, Tefal and more. Everything we tested got the job done. But some were a pain to use, and took so long to cook they left our stomachs rumbling – even then, the results weren't that appetising. Ensure you do not exceed the 10 cup mark shown in "cups" on the inside of the bowl, exceeding this level may cause overflows during use. Why is steam leaking during use? Be aware of pre-heat times They are usually not included in the quoted cooking time in recipes, but can be 10 minutes or more if you're pressure cooking or steaming with the multi cooker. We factored preheat times when rating how fast each multi cooker delivered.
