The following grill settings are suitable
for browning food:
Grill n is suitable for browning dishes
such as cauliflower cheese. It can be
used for grilling very thin meat or fish.
Fan Grill N is suitable for grilling
larger pieces of meat, e.g. poultry and
kebabs.
Combination programmes:
Microwave + Grill h + n
and
Microwave + Fan Grill h + N
are suitable for cooking food which re-
quires a crisp finish or browning. Micro-
wave power output is limited to 450 W
maximum for the total grilling time.
Preparation of meat or fish
Clean, wipe and season. Do not salt
slices of meat beforehand as this draws
the juices out.
Add a little oil if necessary. Other fats
quickly become black or cause the
food to smoke. A little butter can be
added to chicken if desired.
Clean flat fish and slices of fish in the
normal way. To enhance the taste add a
little salt or squeeze a little lemon juice
over the fish.
Remember to fit the grease filter to
the backpanel in front of the fan
when using Fan Grill, either on its
own (Solo) or in a combination
programme.
Pre-heat the grill for approx. 5 minutes
with the oven door shut.
Do not select a microwave setting.
Brush the rack with oil and place the
prepared food on the rack.
It is best to grill food of a similar thick
-
ness at the same time so that the grill
-
ing time for each item does not vary too
greatly.
Slide the glass tray with the rack
–
into the upper (2nd) runner level for
flat pieces of food
–
into the lowest runner level for thicker
pieces of food,
Most items should be turned half way
through cooking.
To grill thicker pieces of food more
gradually after an initial high tempera-
ture, continue grilling at a lower temper-
ature setting to allow the food to cook
through to the centre.
Test to see if cooked
One way of finding out how far through
a piece of meat has been cooked is to
press down on it with a spoon:
–
If there is very little resistance to the
pressure of the spoon, it is still red on
the inside ("rare").
–
If there is some resistance the inside
will be pink ("medium").
–
If there is great resistance, it is
throughly cooked through ("well
done").
For more detailed information on
grilling consult a good microwave or
microwave combi-oven cookbook.
