To check the progress of the food being grilled, the
grill pan should be withdrawn on the shelf to tend the
food during cooking.
HINTS AND TIPS
· Food should be thoroughly dried before grilling to
minimise splashing. Brush lean meats and fish
lightly with a little oil or melted butter to keep
them moist during cooking.
· Adjust the height of the grilling grid and grill pan
runner position to allow for different thicknesses
of foods.
· Place food on the grill pan or grid directly onto
the grill pan base.
· Accompaniments such as tomatoes and
mushrooms may be placed underneath the grid
when grilling meats.
· When toasting bread use the shelf in position 1
with the grid in the high position and placing the
bread in the centre of the grid.
· Preheat the grill on a full setting for five minutes
before cooking. Adjust the heat setting and shelf
as necessary during cooking.
· The food should be turned over during cooking
as required.
