For best results:
• Always cut large pieces of food into smaller pieces of even size of approximately 1.5cm to
achieve even results.
• Use the sharp edge for chopping, puréeing and mixing. It is ideal for chopping softer food such
as herbs, celery, onions, garlic and most cheese. It is also useful for puréeing cooked vegetables,
making mayonnaise and mixing salad dressing.
• Use the blunt edge for grinding coff ee beans and spices, and for chopping hard food such as
peppercorns, seeds, chocolate and nuts.
ATTENTION: Do not overload the work bowl. Overloading causes inconsistent results and strains
the motor. After being processed, food should not reach more than 2/3 of the way up the central
plastic stem of the blade assembly.
N.B. Please note that although the air capacity of the Mini Prep Pro is 900ml the following
maximum fi ll capacities apply for optimum use of the product:
• 700ml - mixture capacity
• 400ml - thin liquid capacity
Chopping fresh herbs
The herbs, work bowl and blade must all be thoroughly cleaned and dried. Remove the stems
from herbs. Add the leaves to work bowl and process, using the 'Chop' switch and a 'pulse' action
until they are chopped to the desired consistency.
Chopping meat, poultry, fi sh & shellfi sh
The food should be very cold but not frozen. Cut into 1.5cm pieces and place in the work bowl.
Use the 'Chop' switch and a 'pulse' action until the food is evenly chopped. Use a continuous
processing action for a few seconds for a fi ner chop if required. Use a spatula to scrape food down
from the sides of the work bowl as necessary.
