The grill The grill is a high-speed grill. The instructions below tell you how to vary the heat setting and how to change the height of the trivet to suit the food you are cooking. You should remember to turn the food regularly. You should not use the grill to keep food warm as it will continue to cook the food. Heat control The grill control gives[...]

Preheating You don't usually need to preheat the grill. You may wish to preheat it for a couple of minutes when you are cooking steak or when browning food. Putting food on the trivet Place food such as toast, teacakes and muffins towards the centre of the trivet. Place food which needs a more gentle heat such as tomatoes and mushrooms towards[...]

L Y R I C 5 5 G 9 For your safety Take care to avoid burns and scalds when you are reaching across the hotplate. Use pans with flat bases. They are more stable than pans which are warped. Do not use pans with very heavy handles which cause the pan to tip. Put pans on the centre of the burners. Position pan handles so they cannot be accidentally kno[...]

Helpful hints 1 Keep flames under the base of pans. If the flames lick round the sides of the pans you are wasting gas. 2 Only heat the amount of liquid you need. Do not overfill pans. 3 Cover pans with a lid whenever possible. The food will heat up more quickly and there will be less steam in the kitchen. 4 Try cooking more than one vegetable in t[...]

The oven Before you use the oven you should wipe it out with a damp cloth to remove any dust. Heat zones There are zones of heat within the oven. The temperature in the middle is the gas mark you have chosen. The top of the oven is slightly hotter and the lower shelf slightly cooler. The base of the oven is quite a lot cooler. You can make use of t[...]

Baking trays and dishes Leave a gap of 13mm (½") between all dishes and the sides of the oven so the heat can circulate properly. Do not push dishes too far back as food will burn if it overhangs the burner flames. For the best results from the oven we recommend that you use a baking tray which is 310mm (12") square. If you use a tray or[...]

Oven temperature chart The chart below is intended to help you use your oven. If you are using a gas oven for the first time or if a recipe says 'cook at 350 o F' or 'use a moderately hot oven' you can use the chart to find out what gas mark to use. The temperatures are only a guide they are not actual temperatures in the oven. [...]
