Tips on roasting and braising
Grilling
Here, you can find information on grilling poultry, meat
and fish, as well as toast. You can find the ideal settings
for certain dishes in the settings tables.
Grilling with circo-roasting
Circo-roasting is very well suited to the preparation of
whole poultry and fish, in addition to meat, e.g. roast
pork with crackling.
Poultry
For duck or goose, pierce the skin on the underside of
the wings. This allows the fat to run out.
If using duck breast, score the skin. Do not turn duck
breasts.
When you turn poultry, ensure that the breast side or
the skin side is underneath at first.
Poultry will turn out particularly crispy and brown if you
baste it towards the end of the roasting time with butter,
salted water or orange juice.
Meat
Baste lean meat with fat as required or cover it with
strips of bacon.
Score the rind crosswise. If you turn the joint when
cooking, ensure that the rind is underneath at first.
When the joint is ready, turn off the oven and allow it to
rest for another 10 minutes in the cooking
compartment. This allows the meat juices to be better
distributed. Wrap the joint in aluminium foil if necessary.

The cooking compartment becomes
very dirty.
Prepare your food in an enclosed roaster with higher temperature or use the grill tray. You will achieve the
best roasting results if you use the grill tray. The grill tray can be bought later as a special accessory.
The roast is too dark and the crack-
ling is burned in places, and/or the
roast is too dry.
Check the shelf position and temperature. Select a lower temperature the next time and reduce the roasting
time if necessary.
The crackling is too thin. Increase the temperature or switch on the grill briefly at the end of the roasting time.
The roast looks good but the juices
are burnt.
Next time, use a smaller roasting dish and add more liquid if necessary.
The roast looks good but the juices
are too clear and watery.
Next time, use a larger roasting dish and add less liquid if necessary.
The meat gets burned during brais-
ing.
The roasting dish and lid must fit together well and close properly.
Reduce the temperature and add more liquid when braising if necessary.
The roast is not well-done enough. Carve the roast. Prepare the sauce in the roasting dish and add the sliced roast meat to the sauce. Finish
cooking the meat using the microwave only.
