Cooking with the grill
For good results with the grill, use the grid
iron supplied with the oven.
IMPORTANT POINTS:
1. When the microwave grill is used for
the first time there will be some smoke
and a smell coming from the oils used
during oven manufacture.
2.
The oven door window becomes very
hot when the grill is working.
Keep
children away.
3. When the grill is operating, the cavity
walls and the grid iron become very
hot. You should use oven gloves.
4. If the grill is used for extended period
of time it is normal to find that the
elements will switch themselves off
temporarily due to the safety
thermostat.
5.
Important!
When food is to be grilled
or cooked in containers you must
check that the container in question is
suitable for microwave use. See the
section on types of ovenware!
6. When the grill is used it is possible that
some splashes of fat may go onto the
elements and be burnt. This is a
normal situation and does not mean
there is any kind of operating fault.
7. After you have finished cooking, clean
the interior and the accessories so that
cooking remains do not become
encrusted.
Heat up the grill beforehand for 2 minutes.
Unless indicated otherwise, use the grid
iron. Place the grid on a bowl so that the
water and the fat can drop. The times
shown are merely indicative and can vary
as a function of the composition and
quantity of the food, as well as the final
condition wished for. Fish and meat taste
great if, before grilling, you brush them
with vegetable oil, spices and herbs and
leave to marinate for a few hours. Only
add salt after grilling.
Sausages will not burst if you prick them
with a fork before grilling.
After half the grilling time has passed,
check on how the cooking is going and, if
necessary, turn the food over.
The grill is especially suitable for cooking
thin portions of meat and fish. Thin
portions of meat only need to be turned
once, but thicker portions should be turned
several times.
