How to Broil
Place the food directly on the wire rack (low or high rack)
For very thick cuts of meat, turn the food at the halfway point
Like roasting, broiling time may vary depending on cut, size, amount of fat, etc.
How to Steam
You can steam vegetables at the same time you cook your main dish by placing the vegetables
in an aluminium foil pouch: add a few drops of water and seal the pouch.
You can also add a cup of water in the bottom pot, with savoury herbs and spices to steam fish
or vegetables, but just a little water.
How to Fry
You can get the effect of deep-fat French fries without all the oil by dipping potato strips
in polyunsaturated cooking oil, allow excess oil to drain away and cook according to cooking
guide.
To make delicious fried chicken, dip chicken pieces in batter and then in cooking oil, drain
excess oil and cook according to chart provided.
How to Toast
You can get perfectly toasted bread and snacks with the convection oven without preheating.
Simply put the food directly on wire rack and watch it toast. It will be crisp on the outside
and stay soft on the inside.
