The food with the longest cooking time will be put into the oven first andthe other foods are added as necessary according to their cooking times.ROASTINGTo obtain classical roasting, it is necessary to remember:■ that it is advisable to maintain a temperature between 180 °C and 200 °C.■ that the cooking time depends on the quantity and the type of foods.USE OF THE GRILLPreheat the oven for about 5 minutes with the door closed.Introduce the food to be cooked, positioning the rack as close to the grill as possible.The dripping pan should be placed under the rack to catch the cooking juices and fats.Do not grill for longer than 30 minutes at any one time.
