For pot
roasts and
potatoes
For smaller quantities 1 level lower, for
larger quantities 1 level higher.
– Always select the highest setting to brown
and parboil food.
– Once the pot boils and steam forms or the
steak is brown on both sides, switch to a
lower level; for larger pots and pans use
the setting ‘2’, otherwise setting ‘1’ is suf-
ficient.
– Roasts weighing more than 1 kilogram are
best cooked in the oven.
– Use the right dishes and a little water/oil to
cook; this helps to preserve the vitamins.
– Use the residual heat of the cooking zones.
The heat is sufficient enough for 5 to 10
minutes, e.g. for soaking rice.
