Operation

Combination cooking is ideal for roasting meats, poultry and cooking cakes, pastries and slices.. Combination cooking automatically alternates between Convection and Microwave heating..

The advantage of Combination cooking is that it gives you the browning of Convection and often shortens the conventional cooking time.. Time is also reduced as preheating is not required..

To calculate cooking time start by cooking for approximately 2/3 of the conventional cooking time and add additional time If required.. For examples of recipes and cooking times, consult recipes in the recipe section..

Ovenproof cookware, including ceramic is suitable for use when cooking on Combination.. Cakes, slices, desserts etc.. may be cooked in metal cookware providing there is suitable quantity of food to be absorbed by the microwave heat.. For example, do not place a small amount of food in a large metallic dish as arcing may occur..

When cooking by Combination, place dishes to be cooked on the Ceramic Tray.. When roasting meat, the roasts may be placed directly on Low Rack..

Sausages and rissoles may also be cooked in this way..

Place a heatproof glass or ceramic dish (less than 2 cm high) under the rack to catch any drips from the roast.. Alternately, elevate the roast on a roasting rack in a baking dish and place directly on Ceramic Tray..

With the ability to circulate hot air evenly, users can achieve a golden-brown finish on baked goods and succulent results for roasted meats, enhancing the versatility of meal preparation.

Another highlight of these models is their compact design, which makes them perfect for kitchens with limited counter space. Despite their smaller footprint, they still pack a powerful performance with a generous capacity suitable for family meals. The user-friendly control panel features an LCD display, simplifying the cooking process with quick access to settings.

In terms of automated cooking, the NN-CD987W and NN-CD997S come equipped with a variety of pre-programmed cooking options. These presets provide guidance for preparing different types of dishes, ensuring optimal results with minimal effort. Whether you're cooking vegetables, seafood, or baked items, these options allow even novice cooks to achieve great results.
