We recommend using Fan plus Y for
roasting.
Conventional A can also be used.
Fan plus Y:
When roasting on the rack or in an
open tin make sure the roasting filter
is fitted in front of the fan in the back
of the oven before starting.
We recommend
roasting in a covered
pot or using a roasting bag
, as
– this ensures that sufficient stock
remains for making gravy.
– and the oven stays cleaner, too.
Roasting containers
Any heat-proof containers can be used:
roasting pans with a lid, made from
earthenware, cast iron, ovenproof china
or glass, and roasting bags are all
suitable.
Miele also offer Gourmet oven dishes
with lids which are ideal for roasting
and cooking larger quantities of food.
Place the roasting pan on the rack into
a cold oven.
Exception:
Pre-heat at the temperature suggested
when roasting beef.
Shelf levels
Use
shelf level 1
for roasting.
Exception:
With Conventional A use shelf level 2
for
- poultry up to 1 kg,
- roast beef,
- and fish.
Temperature
Please refer to the
Roasting chart
for
suggested
temperatures
.
Do not select a higher temperature than
that advised. The meat will become
brown, but will not be cooked properly.
With
Fan plus
Y, a temperature
setting of 40 °C lower than for
Conventional A is sufficient.
For
cuts which weigh 3 kg
or more,
select a temperature approx. 10 °C
lower than that given in the roasting
chart.
Roasting will take longer at the lower
temperature, but will be more even.
For
roasting directly on the rack
,
select a temperature that is about 20 °C
lower than for roasting in a covered pot.
When roasting on the rack, place the
rack and anti-splash tray over the grill
pan.
