Tip: Baste large joints and poultry several times during cooking with the meat juices. This will produce better roasting results.

Roasting

Use the rotitherm or conventional oven functions for roasting.

Ovenware for roasting

Any heat-resistant dish is suitable for roasting (refer to the manufac- turer's instructions!).

If the dish has plastic handles, check that they are heat-resistant (re- fer to manufacturer's instructions!).

Large roasts can be roasted directly on the universal baking tray or on the shelf with the universal baking tray underneath (e.g. tur- key, goose, 3-4 chickens, 3-4 knuckles of veal).

We recommend that all lean pieces of meat should be roasted in a casserole dish with a lid (e.g. veal, marinated beef, pot roast, frozen meat.) In this way the meat will retain its juices.

In order to obtain a tasty outside crust we recommend roasting piec- es of meat in a casserole dish without a lid (e.g. roast pork, lamb and mutton, meat loaf, duck, 1-2 knuckles of veal, 1-2 chickens, small fowl, roast beef, fillets, game).

3 Tip: The oven will be less dirty if you always use a dish for roasting!

Shelf positions

Please see the following table for the shelf positions to be used.

3 Notes on the roasting table

Information is given in the table on suitable oven functions, tempera- ture settings, cooking times and shelf positions for various types of meat. The information is for guidance.

We recommend roasting meat and fish with a minimum weight of 1kg in the oven.

In general the conventional oven function is particularly suitable for very lean meat such as fish or game. For all other types of meat (par- ticularly poultry) we recommend the rotitherm function.

To stop meat juices or fat burning onto dishes or the oven, we recom- mend adding a little water to the roasting dish.

Turn the joint as required (after 1/2 - 2/3 of the cooking time).
