O
for gentle top heat

cheese on toast, panini , tuna melts or delicate food such as fish).
5. When done, open the grill (use the oven gloves), and remove the food with a spatula/tongs.
6. Switch off and unplug the grill.
CHECK THAT THE FOOD IS COOKED

Whichever cooking mode you use, check that the food is cooked through before serving –
if you’re in any doubt, cook it a bit more.

fish till the flesh is opaque throughout.
