Hints
Use of Accessory:
Cakes, slices, desserts, etc . may be cooked in metal
cookware . Do not place a small amount of food in a
large metallic dish as arcing may occur .
Combination cooking is ideal for roasting meats,
poultry and cooking cakes, pastries and slices .
Combination cooking automatically alternates
between Convection and Microwave heating .
The advantage of Combination cooking is that it
gives you the browning of Convection and often
shortens the conventional cooking time . Time is also
reduced as preheating is not required .
To calculate cooking time start by cooking for
approximately
2
/
3
of the conventional cooking time
and add additional time If required . For examples of
recipes and cooking times, consult recipes in the
recipe section .
Ovenproof cookware, including ceramic is suitable
for use when cooking on Combination . Cakes, slices,
desserts etc . may be cooked in metal cookware
providing there is suitable quantity of food to be
absorbed by the microwave heat . For example, do
not place a small amount of food in a large metallic
dish as arcing may occur .
When cooking by Combination, place dishes to be
cooked on the Ceramic Tray . When roasting meat,
the roasts may be placed directly on Low Rack .
Sausages and rissoles may also be cooked in this
way .
Place a heatproof glass or ceramic dish (less than
2 cm high) under the rack to catch any drips from
the roast . Alternately, elevate the roast on a roasting
rack in a baking dish and place directly on Ceramic
Tray .
