Poultry
The weights of the table are for unstuffed birds ready to roast.
Place whole birds on the wire shelf initially with the breast side
down. Turn once after
Z the estimated time.
Turn pieces of meat such as turkey pieces or turkey breasts
over after half the cooking time has elapsed. Turn the pieces of
poultry after
Z the time has elapsed.
If cooking duck or goose, prick the skin below the wings to
release the fat.
The birds can be made brown and crunchy if they are smeared
with butter, brine or orange juice more or less at the end of
cooking time.
If grilling directly on the shelf, place the enamel tray on level 1.
Fish
Turn the fish pieces after
Z the time has elapsed.
Whole fish do not need to be turned over. Bake whole fish in
swimming position with the dorsal fin up. So that the fish
remains stable, place a cut potato or a small container suitable
for baking into the abdomen of the fish.
To cook fish fillets, add a few tablespoons of liquid when
cooking.
If grilling directly on the shelf, place the enamel tray on level 1.

The table does not contain information for the
weight of the joint.
Select the next lowest weight from the instructions and extend the time.
How to tell when the roast is ready. Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist shops) or carry out a
“spoon test”. Press down on the roast with a spoon. If it feels firm, it is ready. If
the spoon can be pressed in, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.
The roast is too dark and the crackling is partly
burnt.
Check the shelf height and temperature.
The roast looks good but the juices are burnt. Next time, use a smaller roasting dish or add more liquid.
The roast looks good but the juices are too clear
and watery.
Next time, use a larger roasting dish and use less liquid.
Steam rises from the roast when basted. This is normal and due to the laws of physics. The majority of the steam
escapes through the steam outlet. It may settle and form condensation on the
cooler switch panel or on the fronts of adjacent units.
