Table of cooking times
The table below lists the optimal heat settings and
cooking times for various types of food. The information
given applies when cooking four portions.
The cooking times and heat settings may vary
depending on the type of food, its weight and quality, on
the type of gas used, and on the material from which
the cookware is made. To prepare this dish, stainless
steel cookware was mainly used.
Always use cookware that is the right size and place it
in the centre of the burner. You can find information
about the diameter of the cookware under
Information on the table
Each type of food can be prepared in one or two steps.
Each step contains information about the following:

Use pans which are the
right size for each burner.
Do not use small pans on
large burners. The flame
must not touch the sides
of the pan.
Do not use damaged
pans, which do not sit
evenly on the hob. Pans
may tip over.
Only use pans with a
thick, flat base.
Do not cook without using
a lid and make sure the lid
is properly fitted. This
wastes energy.
Always centre the pan
over the burner, not to one
side. Otherwise it could tip
over.
Do not place large pans
on the burners near the
control knobs. These may
be damaged by the very
high temperatures.
Place the pans on the pan
supports, never directly on
the burner.
Make sure that the pan
supports and burner caps
are correctly positioned
before using the
appliance.
Pans should be placed on
the hob carefully.
Do not strike the hob and
do not place excessive
weight on it.
Never use two burners or
heat sources to heat one
single pan.
Do not use grill pans,
earthenware casserole
dishes, etc. for a long
period of time on
maximum power.
Do not place anything, eg.
flame tamer, asbestos mat,
between pan and pan
support as serious damage
to the appliance may result.
Do not remove the pan
support and enclose the
burner with a wok stand as
this will concentrate and
deflect heat onto the
hotplate.
Do not use large pots or
heavy weights which can
bend the pan support or
deflect flame onto the
hotplate.
