COOKING GUIDE
ROASTING
The Roast function is designed to brown the outside of the meat but still keep the inside
moist and juicy.
Boneless, rolled or stuffed roasts take longer than roasts containing bones.
Poultry should be well cooked with the juices running clear and an internal temperature
of 165°F (75
o
C).
If using a roasting bag, do not use the Roast function. The initial searing stage is too
hot for roasting bags. Use Fan Bake or Fan Forced and follow the manufacturer’s
instructions.
When using the Roast function, do not cover your roast, as this will stop the searing
process browning the outside of the meat. If you prefer to roast in a covered pan, use
the Fan Bake function instead and increase the temperature by 70°F (20
o
C).
Cook larger cuts of meat at a lower temperature for a longer time. The meat will cook
more evenly.
Always roast meat fat side up. That way, basting may not be required.
Always rest the meat for at least 10 minutes after roasting to allow the juices to settle.
Remember the meat will continue to cook for a few minutes after removing it from the
oven.
Try our new Vent Bake function as an alternative for roasting pork. The drier atmosphere
will help to perfect your crackling.
Shelf Position Guide
Place the meat on a shelf so that the meat is in the center of the oven or lower.
BROILING
This is a healthier alternative to frying.
Always broil with the oven door completely shut.
If you use glass or ceramic pans, be sure they can withstand the high temperatures of
the broil.
To avoid piercing the meat and letting juices escape, use tongs or a spatula to turn the
meat halfway through cooking.
Brush meat with a little oil to help keep the meat moist during cooking. Alternatively
marinade the meat before broiling (but be aware that some marinades may burn easily).
Where possible broil cuts of meat of a similar thickness at the same time. This will
ensure even cooking.
Always keep a close watch on your food while broiling to avoid charring or burning.
Shelf Position Guide
For thinner cuts of meat, toasting or browning foods, use a higher shelf position.
Thicker cuts of meats should be broiled on lower shelves or at a lower broil setting to
ensure even cooking.
