If you use an earthenware casserole, read the manufacturers instruc-
tions. The following is recommended:
– Rinse the pot or casserole with water or use a little oil or fat.
– Seal the prepared (dressed) meat in a pan on the hob.
– Place it in the pot or casserole. Cover with the lid and place it in the
cold oven on the grid shelf.
Set the automatic cooking recipe or the turbo fan with top heat function,
or
, at 180-200° C.
Roasting with conventional cooking functions
When roasting with the thermoprobe the cooking time is automatically
determined, therefore the following instructions do not need to be
followed.
The settings and information in the charts refer to a cold oven unless
otherwise specifi ed.
The cooking time of the roast depends on the type, quality and height of
the meat.
As the weight of the meat makes it fall, carefully press the sides of the
piece with both hands in order to determine its height. Instructions are
provided in the chart “Roasting with heat settings”
The cooking time for meat with a layer of fat may increase to twice the
length.
If roasting several small pieces of meat or small birds in the oven, the
cooking time should be increased by about 10 minutes per piece. For
example, the roasting time for one chicken is approximately 60 mins.
Two chickens will need between 65 and 75 mins.
Shelf levels (count from the bottom up):
As a general rule: The bigger the roast the lower the grid shelf should be
in the oven.
For larger roasts:
Hot air + grill
or
:
Tray: Shelf level 1
Grid shelf: Shelf level 2
Hot air
:
Tray: Shelf level 1
Grid shelf: Shelf level 2
Top/bottom heat
:
Tray: Shelf level 1
Grid shelf: Shelf level 2
Instructions for automatic cooking recipes
The settings and information in the charts refer to an oven that has
not been preheated unless otherwise specifi ed.
The roasting settings automatically adapt to the weight of the food to
be cooked, for this reason it is important to set the weight directly
after selecting the setting and before modifying the cooking time,
the cooking temperature or the inside temperature (see previous
sections).
If using an automatic cooking recipe
The roasting programmes are designed for one piece of meat or fi sh up to
7cm thick and without a layer of fat. Enter the correct weight and modify
the recipe, taking into account:
If there are several pieces, the cooking time will need to be extended.
If there is one piece thicker than 7cm and weighing less than 3kg, the
cooking time should be increased by 10 minutes for each centimetre
with respect to the pre-programmed value.
If there is one piece weighing more than 3 kg, the cooking time
corresponds to the predetermined value, as the differences balance out
throughout the pre-programmed cooking time.
