Roasting in the oven
We recommend the following settings
for roasting in the oven:
– Fan Heat
D
– Conventional
A
Fan Heat
D
:
Make sure the grease filter is fitted
in front of the fan in the back of the
oven interior before starting.
We recommend roasting in a covered
pot
L
:
– This ensures that sufficient stock re-
mains for making gravy.
– The oven stays cleaner, too.
Roasting pots with a lid, made from
earthenware, cast iron, ovenproof
china or glass, and roasting foil are suit-
able.
Make sure that the pot and lid have
heat-resistant handles.
Place the covered pot on the rack.
The meat should be put into a cold
oven.
Exception
: Pre-heat the oven to the tem-
perature recommended in the recipe
when cooking roast beef or beef fillet.
Use
shelf position 1
for roasting.
Exception
: Use shelf position 2 when
roasting poultry weighing up to 1 kg, a
cut of meat, or fish.
The “Fan Heat
D
” system uses an ap-
proximately 40°C lower
roasting tem-
perature
than the “Conventional” heat-
ing system.
The bigger the quantity to be roasted,
the lower the temperature.
When roasting more than 3 kg select a
temperature about 10°C lower than the
one given in the “Roasting” chart.
The roasting process will take a bit
longer, but the meat will be cooked
evenly and the exterior will become
crisp.
For roasting directly on the rack
K
the temperature needs to be about
20°C lower than for roasting in a
covered pot
L
.
The
Roasting time
will depend on the
type of meat, the size and thickness of
the cut.
