Hints & Tips
• Use the mix function while frying or sautéing onions, garlic, or other base ingredients at
the start of your recipe.
• It is best to use the blender function to get a smooth soup, but if you require a chunky
soup, the mix function can be used.
• Always add fat (e.g. butter or oil) directly on the heating plate and select a low heating
temperature to allow melting, before frying vegetables.
