Wouldn’t it be great if we all had time to spend ages in the kitchen, concocting scrumptious dishes for the whole family to wow at?Yeah, we know, most of us just don’t. Great news! Even if your life is crazy-busy, you’ll have time to get the best out of a Philips All-in-One Cooker. W hether it’s creating something special for the evening meal or making batches of food for freezing, the benefits of a cooker such as this are many. Unlike those knives that were advertised as cutting, chopping, slicing, dicing go big with meaty meals, then the next model up, the Philips HD2238/72, just might be the ticket. Able to cater for 14 hungry mouths, it delivers all NOW YOU’RE COOKING!

WHAT’S COOKIN’, GOOD LOOKIN’?

often where they’ve stayed after one or two outings. The Philips All-in-One Cooker is one of those dream appliances that you can park on the bench, as it has so many uses. Just one of the benefits is that they can take care of all your slow-cooking needs, but with the ability to accomplish cooking feats far beyond your plain old one-trick slowpoke. Pile in your ingredients, set it to cook and go off to work, for example, then come home to a ready-to-devour meal. You can even set your Philips cooker to keep things nice and warm once they’ve cooked. Some might be wary of leaving food cooking while away, which is why Philips have engineered nine safety protection systems onboard their cookers, for that extra peace of mind. If the idea of not having to hang around the kitchen like a bad smell, and instead getting on with things and coming back to a good smell, appeals then a Philips All-in-One Cooker may be your golden ticket to culinary freedom. MESS? WHAT MESS?! There’s one thing that usually goes hand-in- hand with classic cooking, and that’s mess – and plenty of it! Saucepans, frying pans, utensils, the stovetop… bleurgh, the oven! Philips All-in-One Cookers couldn’t make cleaning much simpler, as a wipe with a damp cloth will usually be all that you need, both inside and out. Plus, a detachable inner lid makes access even easier. You have your Philips All-in-One Cooker, so what to cook? If you’re short on inspiration, or just feeling your way, a convenient recipe book is included (along with a scoop, a measuring cup and a steaming tray/basket). You can also always hop online for plenty of ideas – installing an Amazon Echo Show or Google Nest Hub in your kitchen could be a very handy move. Hey Google, how do I make a slow- cooker enchilada stack? Mmm, STACK!

capacity, 1500 watts of power for speedier warm-up (meaning faster cooking time) and 20 pre-set functions, even including one for those with a sweet tooth, jam. Yum! The pre-sets are a truly wonderful thing, not only taking the guesswork out of cooking, but letting you leave
