THERMOFAN OVEN Registered by Defy in 1978, Thermofan cooking differs from conventional cooking in that it uses the principle of forced convection within the oven. The advantages are: 1. Both trays may be used at the same time. 2. Different dishes can be cooked simultaneously without flavour or aroma transfer. Hence fish, meat and cakes can be baked at the same time. 3. The oven door may be opened any time for inspection purposes without risking a flop. 4.
TURBO GRILLING • • • • • • • • The oven door must remain closed when turbo grilling. Turbo grilling is most suitable for meat, as drying out and shrinkage will be reduced Use only a wire shelf when grilling as the intense heat could warp the baking tray. Set the selector and oven thermostat to the grill positions Pre-heat the roast pan / broiler for 5 min. under the grill element to help seal the meat. Place the food on the broiler and place this on a wire shelf near to the grill element.
