Grilling duration
– Thin pieces of fish and meat usually
tak
e 6–8 minutes per side.
It is best to grill food of a similar
thickness at the same time so that
the grilling duration for each item
does not vary too greatly.
– Thicker pieces need about 7–9
min
utes per side
– With rolled meat, allow approx.
10 min
utes per cm diameter.
Testing to see if cooked
One way of finding out how well a piece
of meat has been coo
ked is to press
down on it with a spoon:
Rare: If the meat gives easily to
the pr
essure of the spoon,
it will still be red on the
inside.
Medium: If there is some resistance,
the inside will be pink.
Well-done: If there is very little
r
esistance, it is cooked
through.
Check if the meat is cooked after the
shor
test time quoted.
Tip: If the sur
face of thicker cuts of
meat is cooked but the centre is not
cooked, continue grilling at a lower
temperature setting or use a lower shelf
level to allow the food to cook through
to the centre.
