breadmaker. However, it isn't as tall, so could easily slot under wall cabinets. It's light, too, featuring While the mainly
white-plastic exterior is less than appealing, the top of the machine is Where all the action takes place. Here, you'll find a
silver control pad with eight buttons: one to change it on; a Menu Button to scroll through automobile programmes (Baking, Soup,

Spoons are dishwasher-safe. TEFAL MULTICOOK ADVANCED 45-IN-1 -- WHAT'S There are not a huge amount of recipes included with the
machine, but there's enough to get an idea of its capabilities. We began by making One Pot Penne Bolognese, including Oil, garlic,
onion and minced beef into the bowl and picking Crust/Fry for Vegetables. We cooked this for 12 minutes with the lid open,
stirring it occasionally, then eight minutes with the lid closed. The mince and onions were well browned, but not dry or
overcooked. Pasata, red wine, water and pasta to the bowl prior to cooking on the Stew setting for Meat for half an hour. The
resulting pasta dish was delicious, with soft penne and lots of rich sauce. We then decided to try the Raspberry and Blueberry
Sponge. lined it with greased baking parchment and layered this with fruit. Mixing the sponge Batter individually, we poured this
over the fruit prior to replacing the bowl in the machine. Selecting the Dessert function at 140C, we baked it for 30 minutes. At
this point a skewer came out slightly moist nevertheless, so we baked for a few more moments Before removing the bowl and turning
out the cake. The final cake was golden brown Using a layer of company stewed fruit and a fluffy sponge below, although its
rounded shape Was a bit unconventional. We steamed some asparagus with the steaming basket with water from the bowl And the Steam
programme for veggies. Been reduced because the steamed asparagus was a little overcooked. Finally, we tried making risotto with
Arborio rice, shallots, wine, mushrooms and stock. Adding them into the bowl at the suggested equivalent cup proportions, we
selected the automatic Pilaf/Risotto function. Since the machine adapts the time to the ingredients in the bowl, it did not
display the cooking duration. After stirring a few times with the rice spoon, it took around 45 minutes. While the rice was
cooked, the grains were fluffy rather than creamy and there was Little in the method of sauce. In the bottom of the bowl, some of
the rice had crisped and Browned -- perfect for paella, but not risotto. Clean-up was easy, however, since all of the parts are
dishwasher-safe. Washing the Accessories and bowl by hand was also straightforward. SHOULD I BUY THE TEFAL MULTICOOK ADVANCED
45-IN-1? Slow-cooking fans and time-poor families alike will find many reasons to love the 45-in-1. Reheat, Delay Start and Keep
Warm functions mean it is everything a slow Cooker needs to be and more. Additionally, it includes other programmes a keen cook
Will be happy to experiment with -- such as yogurt. While one or two functions involve a little trial-and-error to get the desired
results, and a Time estimate on the rice programme would have been welcome, for the most part this Machine performed really well.
VERDICT A great-value buy with plenty of features. If you're looking to make more of your meal Times then the Tefal MultiCook
Advanced 45-in-1 multi-cooker is a smart upgrade.
