Problem

Grilling
Uneven cooking front
to back

Ensure that the grill pan is positioned correctly.

Fat splattering

Ensure the grill is not set at too high a temperature.

Check

Oven Baking
Uneven rising of cakes

Ensure that the oven shelves are level by using a spirit level on
the rod shelf and adjusting, using suitable packing,
e.g. wood, under the feet of the appliance. This should be
checked both left to right and front to back.

The following may cause cakes to sink:
1. Cooking at too high a temperature, reduce by 10˚C.
2. Using a traditional margarine and sugar creaming method

with soft margarine can cause sinking of cakes. Try an
all-in-one method and reduce oven temperature by 10˚C.

3. Using normal creaming method with soft margarine (use

the all-in-one method).
