I cannot for the life of me hook my spatula onto the basket. It just won't go on -the angle is wrong. Any tips? Thanks
-
Try it on the bench top and see if you can get the angle of the dangle correct then place it back in the bowl and have another go auds. I never use mine to hook the basket out, I just use a knife or fork or anything that will fit in there - it's a lot quicker.

OK will just try that thanks x

the spatula has to be at about a 45 degree angle to the top of the basket to get it right (if that makes sense!)

Are you practising with the steaming basket in the bowl or just on the bench? It is much easier when it's IN the bowl, as you get some purchase onto the sides of the bowl. Once you get it hooked, lift directly upwards. It's a knack, but it's terrific once you "get" it!
-
ok I will persevere - took me ages to get the "knack" of putting the bottom back on the bowl :D
-
Oh you will 'get there' with the spatula / basket. Like you it took me a while to assemble to the bowl and ditto with the spatula and basket. I just need to practice using the spatula in the bowl now as I find it quite difficult to use.
