Grilling hints
As a method of cooking, grilling can be used to:
• Enhance the flavours of vegetables, fish, poultry
and meat.
• Seal the surface of the food and retain natural juices.
• Grill with the door closed.

Guide to better grilling
No definite times can be given for grilling because
this depends on your own tastes and the size of the
food. These times should only be used as a guide and
remember to turn the food over half way through the
cooking process.
food time in minutes
Steak 15-20
Chops 20-30
Fish 8-10
Bacon 4-5
For better grilling results, follow these easy instructions:
• Remove oven/grill dish and grill insert and preheat grill
for about 5 minutes.
• Choose only prime cuts of meat or fish. If the cut is
less than 5mm thick it will dry out. If the cut is more
than 40mm thick, the outside may burn whilst the
inside remains raw.
• Do not place aluminium foil under food as this prevents
fats and oils from draining away, which could result in
a fire.
• Baste the food during grilling with butter, olive oil or
marinade. Grilled food is better if marinated before
cooking.
• Use tongs to turn food as a fork pierces the surface
and will let juices escape.
Fan grill
The ‘fan grill’ function will assist the grilling process
by circulating the heat evenly around the food. The
recommended temperature setting is 180°C for all fan
grilling functions.
• Use the anti spatter insert and grill dish for all
fan grilling.
Position the dish in the lower half of the
oven, for best results.
• Wipe off any oil or fat which splatters while the oven
is still warm.
• There is no need to turn meat as both sides are
cooked at the same time which means the food
is succulent.
