Baking tray and roasting tins
For best cooked results and even
browning, the maximum size baking
trays and roasting tins that should be
used are as follows;
Baking tray
350mm x 280mm
This size of baking tray will hold up to
16 small cakes.
Roasting tin
370mm x 320mm
We recommend that you use good
quality cookware. Poor quality trays
and tins may warp when heated,
leading to uneven baking results.
Oven shelves
The oven shelf must be positioned
owards the rear of the oven, with the
upstand facing upwards.
Position baking trays and roasting tins
on the middle of the shelves, and leave
one clear shelf position between
shelves, to allow for circulation of heat.
Aluminium foil
Use foil only to cover food or cooking
dishes. Do not use foil to cover the
shelves or oven base, as this creates a
fire hazard.
Slow cooking
Make sure that frozen foods are
thoroughly thawed before cooking.
Do not
slow cook joints of meat or
poultry weighing more than 2

For roasting joints of meat or poultry
and for pot roasts, preheat the oven
to 190˚C - 200˚C and cook for 30
minutes, then adjust the oven control to
110˚C - 120˚C for the remainder of
the cooking time.
Slow cooking times will be about
three times as long as conventional
cooking times.
