Selecting the cooking time for your roast depends on your personal preference. Meat taken
straight from the refrigerator will take longer to cook.
Poultry should always be well cooked with the juices running clear.
Roasting is a method of cooking meat that uses dry heat. Don't add water to your roast as this
has a steaming effect.
Vegetables are excellent cooked on Roast. Clean and cut them into large chunks, coat lightly
with oil, season and place in a single layer on the greased glass tray. Select Roast using the
oven mode dial and set the temperature to 170 °C. Place in the oven on a shelf in position 8.
Cook for 35 – 45 minutes, depending on the size and type of vegetable, until golden brown
and tender. Vegetables can be placed on the grilling system, around meat if they are going to
take approximately the same length of time to cook. Cooking for longer than about two hours
will overcook the vegetables so put them in the oven partway through cooking a large piece
of meat. The vegetables will brown more slowly if they have missed the initial searing stage of
the Roast mode so allow plenty of time to cook them thoroughly, up to two hours at
150-170 °C.

many meats grilling is considered to be a healthier alternative to frying. Grilling is also a great
way to cook vegetables. Grilling is a relatively quick method of cooking foods producing
superior flavour. Carry out all grilling with the oven door completely closed.
When using AeroGrill the upper elements are on and the hot air is circulated around the oven
by the oven fan. AeroGrill is suitable for foods that you might normally pan fry, barbecue or
rotisserie, for larger cuts of meat and whole chickens.
