5.6 Tips for roasting and grilling
The table does not contain information for the
weight of the joint.
For small roasts, select a higher temperature and a shorter cooking time.
For larger roasts, select a lower temperature and a longer cooking time.
How to tell when the roast is ready.
Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist shops) or carry out
a “spoon test”. Press down on the roast with a spoon. If it feels firm, it is
ready. If the spoon can be pressed in, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.
The roast looks good but the juices are burnt.
Next time, use a smaller roasting dish or add more liquid.
The roast looks good but the juices are too clear
and watery
Next time, use a larger roasting dish and add less liquid
The roast is not well-done enough.
Carve the roast. Prepare the gravy in the roasting dish and place the slices
of roast meat in the gravy. Finish cooking the meat using the microwave
only.
