Grilling
When grilling, preheat the oven for approx. 3 minutes, before
putting the food in.
Always grill with the oven door closed.
As far as possible, the pieces of food you are grilling should be
of equal thickness. This will allow them to brown evenly and
remain succulent and juicy.
Turn grilled items after the specified time.
Whole fish does not need to be turned. Place the whole fish in
the oven in the swimming position with the dorsal fin pointing
upwards. Placing a scored potato or a small oven-proof
container in the stomach cavity of the fish will provide stability.
Do not add salt to steaks until they have been grilled.
Place the food to be grilled directly on the wire rack. If you are
grilling a single piece, the best results are achieved by placing
it in the centre of the wire rack.
The universal pan should also be inserted underneath. To
prevent a high degree of smoke from forming, do not insert the
pan higher than level 3. The meat juices are collected in the
pan and the oven is kept cleaner.
Do not insert the baking tray or universal pan at level 4 or 5.
The high heat distorts it and the cooking compartment can be
damaged when removing it.
The grill element switches on and off continually. This is normal.
The grill setting determines how frequently this will happen.
