TABLES OF COOKING TIMES
The overall suggested cooking times set out below are intended as a rough guide only. They may in
fact vary according to the quality, the freshness, the size and the thickness of the food cooked and
of course cooking time is also partly a matter of taste. Let the food stand for a few minutes before
serving because the ingredients continue cooking after they have been removed from the oven.
Static oven
Unless otherwise stated, the cooking times do not include heating up the oven to the required
temperature. See fig. 2, page 34 for the correct position of the oven shelves.

HANDY TIP: Turn off the oven at least 10 minutes before the time shown, leaving the food
in the oven. This way, you will save energy and be able to finish cooking the dish in such
a way as to suit you. Lower the temperature so as to avoid the surface of the food becoming
hard and dry.
