KNOW YOUR TIMER

15

The oven timer offers you the followingfeatures:1. Time of day2. Automatic cooking3. Minute minder

Automatic cookingThe main fan oven can be controlledautomatically.

Guidance on automatic cookingl Select food which will take the samelength of time to cook, and require thesame temperature.l Set the oven timer so that food willhave finished cooking, or be about tofinish cooking on your return to theoven. This will ensure that the food ishot and will not require re heating.l Food should be as cold as possiblewhen it goes into the oven, ideallystraight from the refrigerator. Frozenmeat and poultry should be thawedthoroughly before it is put into theoven.l We advise that warm food is neverplaced in the oven for automatic cook-ing. Stews prepared by frying themeat and vegetables should becooked as soon as possible.l We advise that dishes containingleft over meat or poultry e.g. ShepardsPie should not be cooked automatical-ly, if there is a delay period.l Stews and joints should be cooked

by the long, slow method, so that thedelay period is kept to a minimum.l On warm days, to prevent thegrowth of harmful bacteria in certainfoods (i.e. poultry, joints etc.) the delayperiod should be kept to a minimum.l Wine or beer may ferment andcream may curdle during the delayperiod, so it is best to add these ingre-dients just before serving.l Foods which discolour should beprotected by coating in fat or tossingin water to which lemon juice hasbeen added prior to placing in theoven.l Dishes containing liquid should notbe filled too full to prevent boilingover.l Foods should be well sealed (but notairtight) in a container to prevent theloss of liquid during cooking.Aluminium foil gives a good seal.l Ensure that the food is cookedthrough before serving.

GRILLING

27

NEVER allow your children nearthe appliance when the grill isin use as the surfaces getextremely hot.

Grilling should never be under-taken with the grill door closed.

Do not line the grill pan withaluminium foil.

The grill control is designed to provideto provide variable heat control oneither left and right grill elementstogether or left hand element only,depending on which direction the con-trol knob is rotated. With the controlknob rotated clockwise both elementswill come on together, and with the theknob rotated anti-clockwise only theleft hand element will come on.

Using the grill.l Open the grill door.l Preheat the grill at setting 5 forapproximately 5 minutes.l When toasting/grilling the grill panis placed either in the upper or lowerrunner and pushed back until it locatesin the stop. This will correctly positionthe pan under the grill element.l Leave the control at 5 for toast, andfor sealing and fast cooking foods.l For thicker foods requiring longercooking, turn the switch to a lower set-

ting after the initial sealing on bothsides at 5. The thicker the food thelower the setting should be set.

After use, always re t u rncontrols to their off position.

Note:Utensils stored in the grill compartmentwill get hot when the fan oven is inuse. Care should be taken whenremoving them.

Oven thermostatWhen operated the oven neon willimmediately come on, and will go outwhen the desired temperature isreached, subsequently switching onand off to maintain the temperature.The fan will operate continuously whilethe oven is switched on.Note: if the neon does not come onwhen the control is turned, check thatthe timer is in manual operation.

Since a fan oven heats up more quick-ly, and generally cooks food at alower temperature than a conventionaloven, preheating the oven is oftenunnecessary. However foods such asbread, scone and Yorkshire puddingdo benefit from being placed in a pre-heated oven.The charts are a guide only, givinga p p roximate cooking temperature sand times. To suit personal tastes andrequirements it may be necessary toincrease or decrease the temperaturesby 10˙C. Because the fan oven cooksso eff i c i e n t l y, we recommend thatwhen cooking recipes not designedfor a fan oven, you reduce the temper-ature by about 25˙C and the time byabout 10 minutes in the hour. If largequantities are being cooked it will benecessary to increase the cooking timeto compensate for the extra oven load.Unless otherwise indicated the foodshould be placed into a cold oven i.e.

without preheating. If the oven isalready hot, the suggested cookingtime should be reduced depending onthe quantity and and type of foodbeing cooked. It should be noted that at the end of acooking period there may be amomentary puff of steam when thedoor is opened, this will disperse in afew seconds and is a perfectly normalcharacteristic of an oven with a goodseal.

Oven positionsSince the distribution of heat in a fanoven is fairly even, most foods willcook satisfactorily on any shelf posi-tion, but the shelves should be even;yspaced :To ensure even circulation do not usemeat tins which are larger than 390 x300mm (15” x 12”) and baking traysno larger than 330 x 255mm (13” x10”), these should be positioned cen-trally on the oven shelf.Do not fit shelves upside down.Never use more than three shelves inthe oven as air circulation will berestricted.Food or cooking utensils should not beplaced on the floor of the oven.To avoid unnecessary cleaning, rodshelves which are not in use should beremoved from the oven.

Temperature and TimeWhen all three shelves are used tocook large quantities of food for homefreezing or parties, it may be neces-sary to increase the cooking timesgiven in the charts, by a few minutes,to allow for the loss of heat due to theextra time taken to load the oven andthe larger mass of food. Baking traysshould allow an equal gap on all sidesof the oven.

Preparing meat and poultry forroasting.l Wipe the meat or poultry, dry welland weigh it. Meat which has beens t o red in a refrigerator should beallowed to come to room temperaturebefore cooking, and frozen meat orpoultry should be completely defrostedbefore placing in the oven.l The weight of any stuffing should beadded to before calculating the cook-ing time.l Place the meat/poultry in the mainoven meat tin supplied with your cook-er. Smaller joints weighing less than1.75kg (31/2 lbs) should be roasted ina smaller roasting tin/pan - or theymay be pot roasted - a small joint in alarge pan causes unnecessary ovensplashing and evaporation of meatjuices.l Additional fat should not be added,except for veal, very lean meat orpoultry which can be either ‘larded’with fat bacon or brushed very spar-

ingly with cooking oil or melted fat.l Beef, lamb, mutton and poultry maybe dusted lightly with seasoned flourto give a crisp outer surface. The skinof duck and goose should be prickedto released excess fat during cookingand the rind of pork should be scored,brushed lightly with oil and rubbedwith salt to give crisp crackling. l Meat and poultry wrapped in, orcovered with a tent of aluminium foilwill be juicy and tender. Roastingbags offer the same advantages.Always follow the manufacture r sinstructions, and remember to reducethe temperature by 25˙C and the cook-ing time by 10 minutes per hour.l Potatoes for roasting only requirelightly brushing with melted fat orcooking oil.l It is not necessary to baste whenroasting in an electric oven, and stockor liquid should not be added to themeat pan since this only causes unnec-essary soiling, steam and condensa-tion.

Frozen meat and poultryJoints of meat and whole birds shouldbe defrosted slowly, preferably in adomestic refrigerator (5-6 hrs per450g) or at room temperature (2-3 hrsper 450g). Frozen meat must be com-pletely defrosted before placing in theoven. It is essential to wash thorough-ly and cook meat immediately afterdefrosting.

The charts are a guide only, givinga p p roximate cooking temperature sand times. To suit personal taste andrequirements, it may be necessary toincrease or decrease temperatures by10˙CThe oven is fitted with ‘Cookclean’ lin-ers and two rod shelves. The oven isheated by two tubular sheathed ele-ments located behind re m o v a b l esides. The heating of the oven isachieved by turning the control knobclockwise to the required temperatureas recommended in the temperaturecharts. The oven neon will immediate-ly and will automatically go off and onduring cooking as the oven thermostatmaintains the correct temperature.It should be noted that at the end of thecooking period there may be amomentary puff of steam when theoven door is opened. This will dis-perse in a few seconds and is a per-fectly normal characteristic of an ovenwith a good door seal.

Preparing meat and poultry forroasting.l Wipe the joint, dry well with a cleancloth, kitchen tissue etc., and weigh it.Meat which has been stored in arefrigerator , should be allowed tocome to room temperature for approx-imately 30 minutes, and similarlymeat stored in a freezer should beallowed the defrost thoroughly. Beef,lamb and mutton may be lightly

floured, but pork should have the rindscored, brushed over lightly with oliveoil, and sprinkled with salt - this givescrisp crackling.l Place the joint in a meat pan (smalljoints weighing less than 1.5kg shouldbe roasted in a small pan/meat tin, orthey may be pot roasted - a small jointin a large pan causes unnecessarysplashing) Additional fat should not beused, except for veal, very lean meat,poultry which can either be ‘larded’with fat bacon or brushed over verysparingly with melted fat/cooking oil.l When potatoes are to be roastedaround a joint, they only require light-ly coating in oil or melted fat. It is notnecessary to baste, when roasting inan electric oven, and liquid and stockshould not be added to the meat pan.

For optimum cooking perf o rm a n c e ,there must be clearance between themeat pan and the oven sides. Theoven pan must be placed length waysin the oven to allow circulation.

Times and temperatures forroastingThe secret of succulent, tender meat isnot to roast it too quickly at too high atemperature. Best results are obtainedwhen roasting is carried out at a lowtemperature. When a lower tempera-ture is used, the joint loses less weightand is more tender (too high a temper-ature causes meat to be dry andtough), the splashing of fat is alsoreduced to a minimum. When a com-plete meal is being cooked in theoven, cooking time may need to beincreased, and the temperature mayneed to be raised for the last 30 min-utes or so. (i.e. when cookingYorkshire Puddings to be served with aroast beef).

The suggested times and temperaturesgiven below should be used as aguide, but may vary according to:-l Whether you prefer meat well done,rare or medium.l The size and shape of your joint:i A short thick joint takes longer tocook than a long thin joint.i A small joint under 1.5kg takeslonger per 450g to cook in the timegiven for ‘minutes’ per 450g, this iswithout the extra minutes added at theend.i Boned, rolled and stuffed joints takelonger to cook through than those witha bone. The weight of the stuffingshould be added to the oven readyweight of meat/poultry to calculate theroasting time.

SLOW COOK / WARMING ZONE

37

Using the slow cook/warmingovenThe lower right hand electric oven pro-vides a gentle heat suitable for warm-ing food, warming plates or slowcooking. It must be preheated if it is tobe used for keeping food warm.

Keeping food warmTurn the control clockwise to the onposition and allow to preheat for 20minutes before placing food in theoven. If food is to be kept moist thenit is important to cover the dishes andplates to prevent them from drying out.This can be done using aluminium foilif the dish doesn’t have a lid. Do notuse cling film as it cannot withstandthe heat in the oven. Some foods arebest left uncovered if you wish to main-tain their crispness. Do not add gravyto plated meals until serving. Carvedmeat should be placed on one plateand covered, adding just a teaspoonof gravy for moistness. When keep-ing plated meals warm it is recom-mended that the food is placed on hot,rather than cold plates.

Slow cookingSlow cooking has always been thebest way to prepare a hot meal withminimum preparation and maximumtime away from the kitchen. Simplyturn the slow cooker control clockwiseto the on position. The neon will illu-

minate and preheat for 20 minutes.Always put the prepared cooking potcentrally on the base of the oven.

Warming platesThe slow cook / warming oven canalso be used for warming plates.Place the plates on the base of theoven. China plates and serving dishesshould be placed in the oven before itis switched on, otherwise the suddenchange in temperature may result indamage.

SLOW COOKING GUIDELINES

38

For best results with Slow cooking:l Cooking time will depend on sizeand shape of meat or poultry.l The maximum capacity of the dishshould be no more than 2.5 litres (4.5pints). The fuller a dish is - the longerit will take to cook.l Always bring soups, casserole andliquids to the boil before putting in theoven and for best results and to givemore colour to meat and poultry, frythe meat to brown and add to hotstock.l All meat recipes need a minimum of5 hours to cook.l Make sure that all frozen ingredi-ents are well thawed out. Alwaysensure that frozen poultry has thawedcompletely and all ice crystals havemelted.l Cut root vegetables into smallerpieces as they take longer to cookthan meat. If possible they should besauteed for 2-3 minutes before slowcooking. l Ensure that root vegetables areplaced at the bottom of the pan andimmersed in the cooking liquid.l A meat thermometer should be usedto when cooking pork joints and poul-try. The internal temperature shouldreach at least 88˙C.l Stuffed meat or stuffed poultry areunsuitable for slow cooking.l Cover casserole with foil or a lid toprevent loss of moisture.

l Adjust seasoning and thickeningingredients at the end of the cookingtime.l Egg and fish dishes need only 1-5hours cooking and should be includedin day cooking sessions when they canbe observed from time to time.l Dried red kidney beans must beboiled for a minimum of 10 minutesbefore being included in any dishes.
