THERMAL GRILLING
Use of thermal grilling
Thermal grilling offers an alternative method of
cooking food items normally associated with
conventional grilling.
The grill element and the oven fan operate
alternately, circulating hot air around the food.
The need to check and turn food is reduced.
Thermal grilling helps to minimise cooking smells
in the kitchen and allows you to grill with the oven
door closed. With the exception of toast and rare
steaks, you can thermal grill all the foods you
would normally cook under a conventional grill.
The lower part of the oven can be used to cook
accompaniments at the same time, e.g. tomatoes
and mushrooms with a mixed grill or breakfast.
Dishes prepared in advance such as shepherd's pie,
lasagne and au gratins can be heated through and
browned on the top using the thermal grilling
function.
NOTE:
Thermal grilling helps to minimise cooking smells
in the kitchen and is carried out with the main
oven door closed, and with the grill pan handle
removed.
