Although the Rommelsbacher MD 1000 is a versatile multi-cooker with numerous functions, it is not specially designed to cook two different dishes simultaneously and independently of each other.

However, you can prepare some dishes one after the other or prepare certain components of a dish at the same time by using the pot and the associated accessories such as the rack and the insert. For example, you can steam vegetables while simultaneously cooking rice in the main pot, but this requires a sequential approach rather than simultaneous preparation in separate, independent compartments.

Simultaneous preparation of rice and vegetables in separate containers would require an additional appliance or special accessories, which the MD 1000 does not offer as standard.
