31Uses, Tables and Tips
Roasting
Oven function: Conventional or Rotitherm
Roasting dishes
• Any heat-resistant ovenware is suitable to use for roasting (please read the
manufacturer's instructions).
• Large roasting joints can be roasted directly in the roasting tray or on the
oven shelf with the roasting tray placed below it.
• For all lean meats, we recommend roasting these in a roasting tin with a
lid. This will keep the meat more succulent.
• All types of meat, that can be browned or have crackling, can be roasted in the
roasting tin without the lid.
3 Tips on using the roasting chart
The information given in the following table is for guidance only.
• We recommend cooking meat and fish weighing 1 kg and above in the ov-
en.
• To prevent escaping meat juices or fat from burning on to the pan, we recom-
mend placing some liquid in the roasting pan.
• If required, turn the roast (after 1/2 - 2/3 of the cooking time).
• Baste large roasts and poultry with their juices several times during roasting.
This will give better roasting results.
• You can switch the oven off about 10 minutes before the end of the roasting
time, in order to utilise the residual heat.
