TO DEFROST IN THE TOP OVEN
USES OF DEFROST
This function enables you to defrost most foods
without heat faster than some conventional
methods as the oven fan circulates air around
the food. It is particularly suitable for defrosting
delicate frozen foods which are to be served
cold e.g. cream filled gateaux, cakes covered
with icings or frostings, cheesecakes, biscuits,
scones etc.
HOW TO DEFROST
1. Press out the Fan Selector button.
2. The Dual grill / Top oven control should be in
the Off '0' position.
THINGS TO NOTE
The oven fan will operate.
The fan selector indicator neon will illuminate.
HINTS AND TIPS
Place the frozen food in a single layer where
possible and turn it over half way through the
defrosting process.
The actual speed of defrosting is influenced
by
room
temperature.
defrosting will be faster than on cooler days.
It is preferable to thaw fish, meat and poultry
slowly in the fridge. However, this process
can be accelerated by using the defrost
function. Small or thin fish fillets, frozen
peeled prawns, cubed or minced meat, liver,
thin chops, steaks etc., can be thawed in 1 -
2 hours.
A 1kg/2¼lb oven ready chicken will be
thawed in approximately 5 hours. Remove
the giblets as soon as possible during the
thawing process.
