Roasting with a lid
Roasting dishes with lids are used for this kind of roasting. This
method is particularly suitable for pot roasts.
Roasting table
The roasting time and temperature depend on the size, height,
type and quality of the item.
As a general rule: the larger the item, the lower the temperature
and the longer the roasting time.
The information in the table is a guideline, and relates to items
cooked without a lid. The values may vary depending on the
type and quantity of the meat/fish and on the roasting dish.
You should set the lower of the specified temperatures the first
time. This will generally allow more even browning.
At the end of the roasting time, switch the oven off and leave
the roast to rest for approximately 10 minutes in the cooking
compartment with the door closed. The recommended rest
time is not included in the given roasting times.
The information in the table is for food placed in a cold oven
and for meat/fish taken directly from the refrigerator.

* Roast pot roasts with a lid on the roasting dish
** Use shelf height 1 for tall items
Crust too thick and/or roast too dry
Check the shelf height. Reduce temperature or roasting time.
Crust too thin
Increase the temperature.
The meat is not cooked right through
Remove any accessories that are not required from the cooking compartment. Increase
the roasting time. Check the core temperature of the roast using a meat thermometer.
Steam in the cooking compartment is
condensing on the appliance door
The steam dries during the course of the cooking. If there is an excessive volume of
steam, you can carefully open the door briefly to allow the steam to escape more quickly.
