Product Description
Pressure cooking will enable you to produce healthy meals in a fraction of the time normally taken. Pulses do not need overnight soaking.The quick cooking in a minimum of water retains vitamins. ‘Tough’ meat is a thing of the past. Full meals can be cooked in one pan – only one pan to wash up
These instructions cover the following model: 53078 Aluminium High Dome Your cooker was quality checked before leaving the factory.Please check that you have all the correct parts.Your model is suitable for the heat sources shown below.
PRINCIPLES OF PRESSURE COOKING Under normal conditions water boils at a temperature of 100°C (212°F).This temperature is dictated by atmospheric pressure and cannot increase no matter how long boiling continues. The weight on your. Prestige Cooker increases the pressure inside the cooker which in turn raises the temperature at which the liquid boils. The result is faster cooking time because of the higher temperature obtained and at the same time the steam is forced through the food, cooking and tenderising it. The 12 lb weight supplied with your cooker is set to achieve a temperature of 117°C which is ideal for the majority of daily recipes.

afters days of searching on the internet, i had to choose a pressure cooker which was going to be suitable to cook small amounts of baby food quickly and come in handy for cooking familly meals aswell. i made the decision to purchase this particular pressure cooker and glad i did because very impressed with the results. it allows me to make baby food very guickly ( 10 min), also various other meals within fraction of the time which means saving time and money (electric bills!!). its also a very healthy way of cooking food as all the nutrient are contained in the cooker. although the cooker lookes bulky, the size is perfect for a familly size of about 4. the build quality is very good, parts are easy to install and wash and comes with manufacturers gaurantee. the cooker also comes with a recipe book which has few recipes to try out, and also includes cooking times for different foods. which needs to be fine tuned to suite your ingredients and quantity as all foods and variations are not listed. overall very reliable brand and a very good product.

This is a good size pressure cooker for someone who will be cooking for one or two people. It's easy to use with simple instructions. The high dome makes a difference to the overall capacity since it can't be filled more than half full. I haven't mastered it completely, but I've made one or two meals that were not only delicious but ready in about 10 minutes. Definitely worth having if you need to prepare things in a hurry.

My first pressure cooker was Prestige Hi dome, and lasted over 30 years. I made the mistake of switching to another brand, so eventually decided to invest in a Prestige cooker again. This one is even simpler to work than the first one I had and gives excellent results. I like it for its simplicity, speed and conservation of nutritional elements while enhancing the taste of vegetables and cutting down considerably on fuel costs.
