Notes

For grilling, place the whole fish, e.g. trout, onto the middle of 

the higher wire rack. 

Grease the wire rack with oil beforehand.

Tips for roasting and grilling

Bakes, gratins, toast with toppings

Notes

The values in the table apply to food placed in a cold oven.

For bakes, potato gratins and lasagne, use a microwaveable, 

heat-resistant ovenproof dish 4 to 5 cm deep.

Place the bake on the lower wire rack.

Leave bakes and gratins to cook in the oven for a further 

5 minutes after switching off.

The table does not contain information for the 

weight of the joint.

For small roasts, select a higher temperature and a shorter cooking time. For 

larger roasts, select a lower temperature and a longer cooking time.

How to tell when the roast is ready.

Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist shops) or carry out a “spoon 

test”. Press down on the roast with a spoon. If it feels firm, it is ready. If the spoon 

can be pressed in, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.

The roast looks good but the juices are burnt. Next time, use a smaller roasting dish or add more liquid.
The roast looks good but the juices are too 

clear and watery.

Next time, use a larger roasting dish and add less liquid.

The roast is not well-done enough.

Carve the roast. Prepare the gravy in the roasting dish and place the slices of roast 

meat in the gravy. Finish cooking the meat using the microwave only.
