Grilling hints
WARNING warning
NOTE: Always clean the grill/oven dish after every use.
Excessive fat build up may cause a fire.
Depending on your model of appliance, you will grill:
• With the door open, if you are grilling in the separate
grill compartment.
• With the door closed, if you are grilling in the oven
compartment.
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 the natural juices.
This table shows how to grill different types of meat:
Beef You can use tenderloin, rump, sirloin.
Brush with oil or melted butter, especially if the
meat is very lean.
Lamb You can use loin chops, shortloin chops, chump
chops, and forequarter chops.
Remove skin or cut at intervals to stop curling.
Brush with oil or melted butter.
Sausages Prick sausages to stop skin from bursting.
Poultry Divide into serving pieces.
Brush with oil.
Fish Brush with oil or melted butter and lemon juice.
Bacon Remove rind.
Grill flat and make into rolls.
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 halfway through the cooking process.
Steak 15 – 20 minutes
Chops 20 – 30 minutes
Fish 8 – 10 minutes
Bacon 4 – 5 minutes
For better grilling results, follow these easy instructions:
1. Remove oven/grill dish and grill dish insert and preheat
the grill for about 3 minutes.
2. 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.
3. Do not place aluminium foil under the food as this
prevents fats and oils from draining away, which could
result in a fire.
4. Baste the food during cooking with butter, olive oil or
marinade. Grilled food is better if marinated before cooking.
5. Use tongs to turn food as a fork pierces the surface and
will let juices escape.
Fan Grill (multifunction models only)
If your appliance has Fan Grill as a function, this 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.
1. Use the grill dish insert and oven dish for all Turbo grilling.
2. Position the dish in the lower half of the oven, for best
results.
3. Wipe off any oil or fat which spatters while the oven is
still warm.
There is no need to turn the meat as both sides are cooked
at the same time which means that the food is succulent.
