Fish
Turn the pieces of fish after Z of the time.
Whole fish does not have to be turned. Place the whole fish in
the oven in its swimming position with its dorsal fin facing
upwards. Placing half a potato or a small ovenproof container
in the stomach cavity of the fish will make it more stable.
For fish fillet, add a few tablespoons of liquid to provide steam.
Tips for roasting and grilling
Bakes, gratins, toast with toppings
Always place ovenware on the wire rack.
If you are grilling directly on the wire rack without ovenware,
you should also insert the universal pan at level 1. This keeps
the oven cleaner.
How well cooked the bake is will depend on the size of the
ovenware and the height of the bake. The figures in the table
are only average values.

The table does not contain information
for the weight of the joint.
Select the next lowest weight from the instructions and extend the time.
How to tell when the roast is ready. Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist shops) or carry out a “spoon test”.
Press down on the roast with a spoon. If it feels firm, it is ready. If the spoon can be
pressed in, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.
The roast is too dark and the crackling
is partly burnt.
Check the shelf height and temperature.
The roast looks good but the juices are
burnt.
Next time, use a smaller roasting dish or add more liquid.
The roast looks good but the juices are
too clear and watery.
Next time, use a larger roasting dish and use less liquid.
Steam rises from the roast when basted. This is normal and due to the laws of physics. The majority of the steam escapes through
the steam outlet. It may settle and form condensation on the cooler switch panel or on
the fronts of adjacent units.
