10.11 Roasting
Use heat-resistant ovenware.
Roast large roasting joints directly in the
tray or on the wire shelf placed above
the tray.
Put some water in the tray to prevent the
meat juices or fat from burning.
Meat with crackling can be roasted in the
roasting tin without the lid.
Turn the roast after 1/2 - 2/3 of the
cooking time.
To keep meat more succulent:
• roast lean meat in the roasting tin with
the lid or use roasting bag.
• roast meat and fish in large pieces (1
kg or more).
• baste large roasts and poultry with
their juices several times during
roasting.
