Roasting

Calculating the roasting time

The roasting time will depend on the type of meat, the size and thickness of the cut.

The traditional British method is to allow 15 to 20 minutes per lb/454 grammes, according to type of meat, plus approx. 20 minutes, adjusting the length of time as roasting proceeds to obtain the required result. Alternatively, multiply the height of the joint by the time per cm for the type of meat:

Beef/venison . . . . . . . . . 15-18 mins/cm

Pork/lamb/veal . . . . . . . . 12-15 mins/cm

Sirloin . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 8-10 mins/cm

e.g. Beef 8 cm thick

8 x 15 minutes per cm = 120 mins

Tips on roasting

Browning only occurs towards the end of roasting time. Remove the lid about halfway through the roasting time if a more intensive browning result is required.

After the roasting process is finished take the roast out of the oven, wrap in aluminium foil and leave to stand for about 10 minutes.

This helps retain juices when the meat is carved.

Pot roasting

Season the meat and place in the pot. Add some knobs of butter or margarine or a little oil or cooking fat. Add about

1/8 litre of water when roasting a large, lean joint of meat (2-3 kg) or roasting poultry with a high fat content.

Roasting on the rack

Place the anti-splash tray in the grill pan and then place the rack on top. Season the meat and place on the rack.

Roasting poultry

For a crisp finish, baste the poultry ten minutes before the end of cooking time with slightly salted water.

Frozen meat

Do not roast deep frozen meat. Meat should be thoroughly defrosted before roasting.

H 4170, H4270 specifications

Miele is renowned for its commitment to quality and innovation in the realm of home appliances, and their built-in ovens, particularly the H4270 and H4170 models, are testament to this ethos. Both ovens showcase Miele’s signature design and cutting-edge technology, aimed at enhancing the cooking experience while ensuring durability and efficiency.

The Miele H4270 is designed for those who appreciate spacious interiors and advanced cooking features. With a generous capacity of 76 liters, it allows for larger meal preparations, making it ideal for families or entertaining guests. This model boasts a variety of cooking methods, including conventional heat, fan-forced cooking, grill, and a unique combination mode that optimally utilizes both heat sources for perfect results.

On the other hand, the Miele H4170 focuses on versatility and user-friendly interfacing. This model retains a substantial capacity but with slightly fewer specialized features compared to the H4270. It is, however, equipped with Miele’s innovative Moisture Plus function. This feature introduces steam into the cooking environment, which is particularly beneficial for baking and roasting, providing moisture retention for dishes while achieving golden-brown finishes.

Both ovens incorporate Miele’s advanced PerfectClean finish, which makes cleaning effortless. This non-stick surface prevents stubborn food residue build-up, allowing the interiors to remain pristine with minimal effort.

Innovative cooking technology is a hallmark of Miele ovens, with both models featuring Miele’s Convection Technology for an even heat distribution. This technology ensures that the food is cooked uniformly, irrespective of the oven's position. Additionally, the intuitive Control Panel with clear display aids in seamless navigation through various cooking programs and settings.

Moreover, safety features such as automatic shut-off, residual heat indicators, and cool-touch fronts come standard, prioritizing user safety while maintaining performance.

In conclusion, both the Miele H4270 and H4170 refrigerators stand out in the market for their quality, technology, and features. While the H4270 leans towards larger capacity and advanced modes, the H4170 provides an exceptional baking experience with its steam function, making both excellent choices for home chefs looking for reliable and sophisticated cooking appliances.
