Selecting the cooking duration
Unless otherwise stated, the durations
given in the roasting chart are for an
oven compartment which has not been
pre-heated.
 The traditional British method for cal-
culating the roasting time is to allow
15 to 20minutes per
lb/450grammes, according to type of
meat, plus approx. 20minutes, ad-
justing the length of time as roasting
proceeds to obtain the required res-
ult. The roasting time can also be de-
termined by multiplying the thickness
of the roast [cm] with the time per cm
[min/cm] stated below, depending on
the type of meat:
– Beef/venison: 15–18min/cm
– Pork/veal/lamb: 12–15min/cm
– Sirloin/fillet: 8–10min/cm
 As a general rule, check the food
after the shortest duration.
Tips
– For frozen meat, increase the cooking
duration by approx. 20minutes per kg.
– Frozen meat weighing less than ap-
prox. 1.5kg does not need to be de-
frosted before roasting.

tions with their recommended values in

wards the end of the cooking duration
to brown the base of the food.

tion for roasting as the juices will be-
come too dark.

meat, fish and poultry that needs to be
well browned as well as sirloin joints

with the Conventional heatfunction,
because the heat is immediately distrib-
uted around the oven compartment.

ergy.
