Tips for grilling
Notes
■
All the values given are guidelines and can vary depending
on the properties of your food.
■
Rinse meat in cold water and dab it dry with kitchen towel. Do
not add salt to the meat until it has been grilled.
■
Always grill on the wire rack with the cooking compartment
door closed and do not preheat.
■
Place the wire rack on the glass pan so that this catches the
meat juices.
■
Use tongs to turn the pieces of food you are grilling. If you
pierce the meat with a fork, the juices will run out and it will
become dry.
■
Dark meat, e.g. beef, browns more quickly than lighter-
coloured meat such as veal or pork. When grilling light-
coloured meat or fish fillets, these often only brown slightly on
the surface, although they are cooked and juicy on the inside.
Combined grill and microwave
Notes
■
Use the wire rack to place the cookware on.
■
Use a high-sided dish for roasting. This keeps the cooking
compartment cleaner.
■
Use large shallow cookware for bakes and gratins. Food
takes longer to cook in narrow, deep containers and browns
more on top.
■
Check that your cookware fits in the cooking compartment. It
should not be too big.

You cannot find any information about the settings for the
quantity of food you have prepared.
Increase or reduce the cooking times using the following rule of
thumb:
Double the amount = almost double the cooking time
Half the amount = half the cooking time
The food has become too dry. Next time, set a shorter cooking time or select a lower microwave
power setting. Cover the food and add more liquid.
When the time has elapsed, the food is not defrosted, hot or
cooked.
Set a longer time. Large quantities and food which is piled high
require longer times.
When the time has elapsed, the food is overheated at the
edge but not done in the middle.
Stir it during the cooking time and next time, select a lower micro
-
wave power setting and a longer cooking time.
After defrosting, the poultry or meat is defrosted on the out
-
side but not defrosted in the middle.
Next time, select a lower microwave power setting. If you are
defrosting a large quantity, turn it several times.
