Six reasons it’s worth buying a multi cooker

With a slow cooker, rice cooker, or multi cooker, you simply need to measure and add your favourite ingredients and select your cooking program. You can leave the cooker unattended as it automatically turns off or switches to Keep Warm mode when your food is ready. Pressure cookers or pressure cooking modes can’t be left unattended. However, these convenient cookers significantly shorten cooking times so your dish can be ready with minimal waiting times.

Having a cooker means one less pot to occupy your cooktop. This means you can prepare your other dish components efficiently, resulting in stress-free cooking. Having a separate cooker also means you don’t have to juggle between multiple dishes when using the oven, so you don’t have to worry about different cooking times and temperatures.

Benchtop cookers are designed to be intuitive and easy to use. Thanks to sensors and timed programs, your appliance intelligently adjusts variables such as temperature and cooking times so you’ll always end up with consistent results.

Take the guesswork out of cooking thanks to programmed recipes and one-touch cooking. Recipes with complicated instructions are a thing of the past with a cooker, and there are no more excuses for those who don’t know how to cook.

Change of plans? Dinner guests arriving late? Staying behind at work? Don’t worry, most multi-cookers feature a Keep Warm function or a timer feature, so your meals are ready when you are. 

Lock in the flavours and nutritional value of your ingredients with your multicooker. Pressure cookers use intense pressure to lock in the flavour, while retaining vitamins and minerals, resulting in a mouthwatering meal that is also good for you. Slow cookers can turn cheaper, tougher cuts of meat into a melt-in-your-mouth experience so you can cut down on your supermarket budget. And rice cookers have convenient cooking options for healthy grains such as quinoa and brown rice to encourage a balanced diet.
