Kambrook Recommends Safety First IMPORTANT: Please retain your instruction book for future use. At Kambrook, we believe that safe performance is the first priority in any consumer product, so that you, our valued customer, can confidently use and trust our products. We ask that any electrical appliance that you use be operated in a sensible fashion with due care and attention placed on the following important operating instructions.
• Always turn the temperature control probe to ‘minimum position’, then switch off at the power outlet and allow probe to cool, then remove the probe and unplug, if the appliance is to be left unattended. • Keep the appliance clean. Refer to care and cleaning (page 8). • Do not place anything on top of the Square Frypan when the lid is in position, when in use and when stored.

Using Your Square Frypan Before First Use Before first use, wash, rinse and dry your frypan and lid. Season the cooking surface by applying a thin coating of cooking oil with paper towelling. Warning: Do not immerse the power cord, plug or temperature control probe in water or any other liquid. Ensure that the frypan socket is fully dry before inserting the temperature control probe. Plug the cord into a 230V or 240V power outlet and then turn the power on.
Care, Cleaning and Storage Care • Do not leave plastic cooking utensils in contact with the hot frypan surface while cooking. • Do not use metal utensils on the nonstick coating of the frypan. Only use wooden or good quality plastic utensils to stir or serve food. • Before cleaning, switch the frypan to ‘minimum position’ and unplug from the power outlet. Remove the temperature control probe when cooled, from the probe socket of the appliance.
Storage Store the frypan upright with the lid in position. Store the temperature control probe carefully. Take care not to knock or drop the probe as this can cause damage. If damage is suspected, return the temperature control probe with the frypan to your nearest Kambrook Service Centre for inspection. TIP: For convenient storage of the temperature control probe, line the frypan with 2 sheets of kitchen paper and place the probe on the kitchen paper.
Cooking With Your Square Frypan Stir-Frying Recommended temperature probe setting 8 – 10. An energy efficient and healthy way of cooking foods. The benefit of this cooking method is its speed and the flavour of the foods. The nonstick cooking surface on your frypan also means that less oil is required for cooking. The cooking action for stir-frying is a continual tossing motion to ensure the food is evenly exposed to the heat and cooks quickly and evenly in a couple of minutes.
Buy meat strips from your butcher or from your supermaket, or prepare meat strips from recommended cuts listed above by removing any fat and slicing thinly across the grain (across the direction of meat fibres). Slicing across the grain ensures tenderness. Cut into very thin strips, approx 5 – 8 cm in length. Partially freeze meat for approx 30 minutes to make slicing easier. Stir fry meat strips in small batches (approx 200 – 300g) to stop meat shedding its juice and ‘stewing’, resulting in tougher meat.
Cooking With Your Square Frypan Pan Frying continued Slow Cooking (braising) Recommended temperature probe setting: Searing - 8 – 10. Medium heat - 6 – 8. Used for cooking meats, fish, seafood, eggs, chicken, sausages. Preheat frypan. When heated, add a small amount of oil, which prevents the food from sticking. The frypan’s non-stick coated surface allows you to reduce the amount of oil when cooking. Alternatively brush whole meat cuts eg.
Roasting Vegetables Recommended temperature probe setting 4 – 10. Meat and Poultry The frypan is ideal for roasting meat and poultry, as the meat retains the flavour and juices. The frypan’s domed lid provides ample room for larger joints of meat and poultry. Preheat the frypan, on setting 10. Fattier joints of meat require no oil. Use only a small amount for less fatty joints. Brown and seal the meat on all sides. Position the lid.
Cooking With Your Square Frypan Toasting Sandwiches Recommended temperature probe setting 8. Up to four sandwiches can be toasted at once in the frypan. Choose fillings which will hold together and not spill out of the sandwich. Preheat the frypan. Butter the pieces of bread well and place the sandwich in the frypan with the buttered sides on the outside. Cook for approx 3 – 4 minutes on each side, depending on the depth of colour desired. NOTE: Temperature setting will depend on filling.
