Hints and tips for automatic cooking

1Check the instructions for setting the automatic controls until you are familiar with the timer operation.

2If the oven has been used, allow it to cool completely before using for automatic cooking.

3You should leave food in the oven for as short a time as possible before automatic cooking starts.

4Do not leave food to stand in the oven when it has finished cooking. You should remove it and if it is not going to be eaten at once, cool it quickly.

5If you cannot remove food from the oven as soon as it is cooked make sure that the food is covered.

6Choose perishable foods carefully, especially during warm weather.

7Food should be fresh and preferably straight from the refrigerator.

8Joints of meat and poultry must be completely thawed.

9Dishes containing left over cooked meat or poultry should not be cooked automatically if there is a delay period.

10Choose dishes which require approximately the same cooking time. Slight variations may be allowed by:-

i)placing foods in larger or smaller containers

ii)using more or less liquid

iii)cutting fruit or vegetables into larger or smaller pieces.

This will give longer or shorter cooking times respectively.

11Arrange shelf positions to suit dishes and choose dishes which will fit into the oven together.

12As food may be standing for some time in the oven, cover dishes with foil or a lid where possible, and in the case of roast potatoes and joints of meat, brush with a little fat or oil. Lemon juice may be added to fruit to prevent browning.

13Cream should be added just before serving.

14If alcohol is used fermentation can occur.

15Green leaf vegetables which take only a short time to cook, should not be placed into the oven with the automatic meal. It is far better to cook them in a pan on the hotplate whilst dishing up the rest of the meal.
