this can lead to grill fires.
Main oven fan cooking
The fan oven is particularly suitable for
cooking larger quantities of food.
The advantages of fan oven cooking are:
Preheating
The fan oven quickly reaches its temperature,
so it is not usually necessary to preheat the
oven.
Without preheating however, you may need
to add an extra 5 – 10 minutes on the
recommended cooking times.
For recipes needing high temperatures, e.g.
bread, pastries, scones, soufflés etc., best
results are achieved if the oven is preheated
first.
For best results when cooking frozen or
cooked chilled ready meals always preheat
the oven first.
Cooking temperatures
Fan oven cooking generally requires lower
temperatures than conventional cooking.
Follow the temperatures recommended in
the cooking chart.
As a guide reduce temperatures by about 20°
C – 25°C for your own recipes, using a
conventional oven.
Batch baking
The fan oven cooks evenly on both shelf
levels, especially useful when batch baking.
