HINTS AND TIPS
• Prepare foods in the same way as for conventional
grilling. Brush lean meats and fish lightly with a
little oil or butter to keep them moist during
cooking.
• Most food should be placed on the grill pan grid in
the 'high' position in the grill pan to allow
maximum circulation of air around the food.
• Accompaniments such as tomatoes and
mushrooms may be placed below the grid when
grilling meats, or in a separate dish on a lower
shelf.
• Foods will cook more quickly the closer they are to
the grill element and the higher the temperatures
selected. Be prepared to adjust temperatures and
shelf positions during cooking if necessary.
• The food should be turned over during cooking as
required.
• Ensure that ready prepared or cooked chilled
dishes e.g. shepherds pie, moussaka, lasagne,
etc., are piping hot throughout before serving.
• A temperature range of 140°C - 220° is suitable
for most foods. Be prepared to make suitable
adjustments during cooking to suit individual
requirements. If Thermal grilling on more than one
level, it may be necessary to interchange the food
on the shelves during cooking.
