							11.17 Roasting
• Use heat-resistant ovenware to roast (refer to the instructions of the
manufacturer).
• You can roast large roasting joints directly in the deep pan (if present) oron the wire shelf above the deep pan.
• Roast lean meats in the roasting tin with the lid. This keeps the meat more
succulent.
• All types of meat that can be browned or have crackling can be roasted in
the roasting tin without the lid.
• We recommend that you cook meat and fish weighing 1 kg and above inthe appliance.• To prevent the meat juices or fat from
burning onto the pan, put some liquid
into the deep pan.
• If necessary, turn the roast (after 1/2 - 2/3 of the cooking time).
• Baste large roasts and poultry with their juices several times during
roasting. This gives better roasting results.
• You can deactivate the appliance approximately 10 minutes before theend of the roasting time, and use the
residual heat.11.18  Roasting tables
