HINTS AND TIPS
· Manual cleaning of the Stayclean surfaces ISNOT recommended. Damage will occur if
abrasives or aerosol sprays of any kind are used.
· Slight discolouration and polishing of theStayclean surfaces may occur in time. This
DOES NOT affect the Stayclean properties in
any way.
· A good time to allow the oven to run on is afterthe weekly roast. After removing the roast, turn
the oven up to 220°C and allow to run for an hour
or so. It is important not to allow a build-up of
soilage as this can prevent the Stayclean
surfaces from working.
· Follow the recommendations below to keep o vensoilage to a minimum.
· Cook at the recommended temperatures. Highertemperatures during roasting will increase
soilage. Try cooking at lower temperatures for an
increased length of time, you will save energy
and often the joint is more tender.
· Use minimal, if any, extra oil or fat when r oastingmeat, potatoes only require brushing with fat
before cooking. Extra fat in the oven during
roasting will increase splashing and soilage.
· It is not necessary to add water to a meat tinwhen roasting. The water and the fat juices from
the joint create excessive splattering during
cooking, even at normal temperatures, as well as
causing condensation.
· Covering joints during cooking will also preventsplashing onto the interior surfaces. Removing
the covering for the last 20-30 minutes will allo w
extra browning if required. Some large joints and
turkeys especially benefit by this method of
cooking, allowing the joint to cook through before
the outside is over-browned.
