Using the cast-iron griddle

The griddle is ideal for cooking a variety of

foods.

We recommend using the griddle on the

dual burners only.

Heat the griddle for a few minutes before

using.

To reduce splatter and smoking, brush the

food rather than the griddle with oil.

Cook steak and chargrilled vegetables at

high temperatures on the ribbed part of the griddle.

Griddle scones, pancakes, pikelets, polenta and eggs

are best cooked slowly at medium to low temperatures on the flat part of the griddle.

See ‘Care and cleaning’ for instructions on how to clean your griddle.

Important!

Prolonged cooking with the griddle at high temperatures may damage the cooktop.
