Table 2.1
Should further browning be necessary, uncover the meat and
increase the temperature to gas mark 4 for a short period.
Cut root vegetables into small pieces unless cooking whole,
e.g. jacket potatoes.
Cover dishes tightly with a lid or foil to prevent evaporation
and transfer of flavour.
Once the oven has been loaded and the 'S' setting is in
operation resist the temptation to open the oven door. Heat
will be lost and the cooking time extended.
A meat thermometer is recommended for checking that
a joint or poultry is sufficiently cooked. Insert the probe
through the thickest part of the meat. For the expected
temperatures see Table 2.1
The Fan Oven
The right-hand oven is a fan oven that circulates hot air
continuously, which means faster, more even cooking.
The recommended cooking temperatures for a fan oven are
generally lower than a conventional oven.
