Sage BRC600UK Review

Sage's The Risotto Plus is a one-touch multi-cooker with a 3.7 litre capacity. It's ideal for small families, as well as individuals, couples and batch cooking. It comes with 5 cooking programs with optimal settings. These programs are Risotto, Saute/Sear, Rice/Steam, Slow Cook Low and Slow Cook High. Each has its own specialised purpose. The Steam function, for example, is ideal for preparing vegetables, chicken and seafood. Sear, on the other hand, brings out a more intense flavour in beef, chicken, garlic, etc.

When your food has finished cooking, the appliance will automatically switch itself off and then activate its keep warm function, allowing you to serve hot food when you're ready. We particularly like how the cooker has a cooking and serving bowl in one, therefore reducing the amount of dishes to wash up. The cooking/serving bowl also has a PTFE-free and a PFOA-free coating.
