lean, tender pieces of meat and fish.
You have to cook food at gas mark 6 for 30 minutes be-
fore you turn the oven down to the slow cook setting. This
is to make sure that the temperature of the food gets hot
sufficient to start the food cooking process.
1. Fully open the door before you light the main oven.
2. Push in the control knob and turn it to gas mark 9.
3. When the flames come on, release the control knob.
Only small flames come on at first.
4. Turn the main oven control knob to gas mark 6.
5. When the large flames come on, put your food in the
appliance and close the door.
Caution! Do not close the door until the large flames
come on.

the slow cook setting.

Thickening
• Cover the meat with the flour for casseroles or mix the
cornflour with the water and add it at the end of cook-
ing
Flavouring
• Flavours are held in the food because there is small
evaporation. Adjust flavouring at the end of the cooking
time.
Liquid
• Use less liquid as there is small evaporation during
cooking. Always add milk and milk products, for exam-
ple cream to the end of cooking to prevent them from
curdling.
