Cooking Temperature Guide
Your NutriOven™ has 6 Nutri-functions. Use these cooking times as a guide. Cooking times
and temperatures will vary depending on factors such as weight, cut of the food and your
personal taste. Similar to your built-in oven in your kitchen, you may need to adjust cooking
times and temperatures to your requirements. Monitor the food as it's cooking and modify
accordingly. It is important to cook mince meat, sausages and poultry until well done. No pink
should be visible and juices should run clear.

Roasting Guide
A meat thermometer shows the exact temperature inside the poultry or meat. If using a meat
thermometer, insert the probe into the centre of the thickest part of the food ensuring it does
not contact bone, fat or gristle.

Cooking Guide
Various cooking methods can be used to
make a wide variety of food in your Sunbeam
NutriOven™.
Bakes
Bake at around 160 - 170°C. You can bake
almost anything – Cakes, Scones, Biscuits,
Muffins, Breads, Quiches, Frittatas, Potatoes
and Fish. If baking biscuits or scones, we
recommend you use the multi-purpose
baking dish and give space between cooking
items to allow air to circulate. For cakes,
we recommend ring tins which allow cakes
to cook through to the centre. If using your
own baking pans or tins, and not the ones
supplied with the NutriOven™, check that
they fit in the oven before using. Silicone
bakeware is not suitable to use in the
NutriOven™.
Roasts
Roast at around 200 - 230°C. You can roast
meats, vegetables, potatoes and wedges. We
suggest lining the bottom of the bowl under
the rack with aluminium foil turned up at the
edges. This will catch drippings and make
cleaning easier. Roasts will need to be turned
at least once in the cooking cycle unless
they are very small. For vegetables, it may
be necessary to remove meat and let it stand
whilst the vegetables finish cooking.
Note: Meat with a bone will take longer than
a boneless roast. Oven bags are not suitable
to use in the NutriOven™.
Steams
Steam at around 180 - 200°C. Steam your
favourite seafood, poultry and vegetables.
When steaming, food should not be very cold.
To steam vegetables, wrap wet vegetables
in foil parcels with a little hot water. Secure
the foil ends well, so the foil is not blown
off or sucked up by the convection fan. Oven
bags are also suitable instead of foil. Place
the foil parcels in the oven so that the air
can circulate around them. Fish can also be
steamed using foil parcels as this will allow
the fish to steam in its own juices.
Note: To speed up steaming time of
vegetables, soak them in hot water.
Grills
Grill at around 200 - 230°C. Grill meats,
seafood, vegetables and your favourite cheese
topping. For grilling, the oven needs to be
very hot for fast cooking and the food must
not be too cold. Using cold food for grilling
and for any of the other cooking functions,
can extend cooking times.
Note: You will not achieve the same amount
of browning as you would on a barbecue or
in a frypan. A small amount of oil sprayed or
wiped onto the food will help in browning.
Air Fry
Air fry at around 200 - 230°C. Air fry bacon,
sausage rolls, tater tots, chips and more.
Once cooked, do not allow the food to stand
in the oven as the steam may cause the food
to soften. A small amount of oil sprayed or
wiped onto the food will help in browning
and crisping.
Toasts
Toast at around 200 - 230°C. Toast sweet
and savoury breads, pastries, rolls and
sandwiches. You can also toast cheese melts
and pizzas.
