USES 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 together,
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 gratin's can be heated through and
browned on the top using the thermal grilling
function.

NOTE:

the kitchen and is carried out with the oven door
