Main Oven - Fan Oven CookeryNotes

GB

Temperature and Time

The oven is provided with two shelves. A third is

 

available as an optional extra, contact Genuine Parts

 

 

and Accessories Hotline (see back page) for further

 

information.

 

If three shelves are used to cook large quantities of

 

food for home freezing or parties, it may be

 

necessary to increase the cooking times given in the

 

charts by a few minutes, to allow for the loss of heat

 

due to the extra time taken to load the oven, and the

 

larger mass of food.

 

Baking trays should allow an equal gap on all sides

 

of the oven.

To prepare meat and poultry for Roasting in your Fan Oven

(a)Wipe the meat or poultry, dry well and weigh it. Meat which has for been stored in a refrigerator should be allowed to come to room temperature before cooking, and frozen meat or poultry must be completely defrosted before placing in the oven.

(b)The weight of any stuffing used should be added before calculating the cooking time.

(c)Place meat/poultry in the main oven meat pan supplied with your cooker. Small joints weighing less than 1.75kg (31/2 lbs) should be roasted in a smaller meat pan/tin - or they may be 'pot roasted' - a small joint or a large meat pan causes unnecessary oven splashing and evaporation of meat juices.

(d)Additional fat should not be added, except for veal, very lean meat or poultry which can either be 'larded' with fat bacon or brushed very sparingly with cooking oil or melted fat.

(e)Beef, lamb, mutton and poultry may be dusted lightly with seasoned flour to give a crisp outer surface. The skin of duck and goose should be pricked to release excess fat during cooking, and the rind of pork should be scored, brushed lightly with oil, and rubbed with salt to give crisp crackling.

(f)Meat and poultry wrapped in, or covered with a tent of aluminium foil will be juicy and tender. Roasting bags offer the same advantages. Always follow the manufacturer's pack instructions, and remember to reduce the temperatures given for conventional ovens by approximately 25°C and the time by approximately 10 minutes per hour.

(g)Potatoes for roasting only require to be brushed with cooking oil or melted fat.

(h)It is not necessary to baste when roasting in an electric oven and stock or liquid should not be added to the meat pan since this only causes unnecessary soiling, steam and condensation.

Frozen Meat and Poultry

Joints of meat and whole birds should be defrosted slowly, preferably in a domestic refrigerator (allowing 5-6 hours per 450g,1 lb), or at room temperature (allowing 2-3 hours per 450g, 1 lb).

Frozen meat or poultry must be completely defrosted before placing in the oven.

It is essential to wash thoroughly and cook meat and poultry immediately after defrosting.
