4. Cooking Table
The oven control settings and cooking times given in the table below are intended to be used
AS A GUIDE ONLY. Individual tastes may require the temperature to be altered to provide a
preferred result.
Food is cooked at lower temperature in a fan oven than in a conventional oven. When using
recipes, reduce the fan oven temperature by 10 °C and the cooking time by 5-10 minutes. The
temperature in the fanned oven does not vary with height in the oven so you can use any shelf.

Thoroughly thaw frozen joints before
cooking. Meat may be roasted at
220 °C (210 °C for fan oven) and
the cooking time adjusted
accordingly. For stuffed and rolled
meats, add approximately 10
minutes per 500g, or cook at 200 °C
(190 °C) for 20 minutes then 160 °C
(150 °C) for the remainder.
For stuffed poultry, you could cook
at 200 °C (190 °C) for 20 minutes
then 160 °C (150 °C) for remainder.
Do not forget to include the weight
of the stuffing.
For fresh or frozen prepacked
poultry, follow instructions on the
pack. Thoroughly thaw frozen
poultry before cooking.
Using the conventional oven: when
two tier cooking leave at least one
runner space between shelves.
Position the baking tray with the
front edge along the front of the
oven shelf.
If cooking a two tier load, the trays
should be interchanged
approximately halfway though the
cooking time.
Up to three tiers can be cooked in a
fan oven at the same time but make
sure to leave at least one runner
space between each shelf being
cooked on.
