Baking food means cooking food with direct, dry heat. The toaster can be found in the oven, usually at the top of the oven, requiring you to move the rack to the topmost position. Some grills are located at the bottom of the oven, in a separate area that resembles a drawer. Roast meats, vegetables, and fruit on high heat and prepare your food for intense heat.
Step
Method 1 of 3: Preparing the Grill
Step 1. Choose a frying pan or pan for baking
Don't use a pan that is too deep, or it won't fit between the oven rack and the toaster.
- Spray the pan with nonstick spray. If you plan to bake something that might get dirty, coat the pan or pan with aluminum foil for easier cleaning later.
- Use a slotted skillet for best results. This type of skillet is designed for grilling so that it is easier for heat to spread to the bottom of the food.
Step 2. Place the oven rack in the top row
Make sure you move the rack while the oven is still cold.
Step 3. Heat the grill
Usually, the oven provides two settings for the toaster; on (on) and off (off). Other ovens may provide a high or low option.
Let the oven heat up for about 5 minutes before you put the food in it. That way, the temperature will rise and you can bake food quickly
Method 2 of 3: Grilling Meat and Fish
Step 1. Season the meat, chicken and fish with olive oil or butter
Step 2. Place the meat or fish on a roasting pan or baking sheet
Step 3. Place the pan in the oven in the top row, about 10 cm from the heat source
Step 4. Leave the meat or fish in the oven until they are evenly cooked
Flip half the meat until it's finished cooking to make sure your food cooks evenly.
- Make sure the baking time matches the one stated in the recipe. The total cooking time depends on the desired level of doneness and the thickness of the meat.
- Allow the fish to rest under the grill for approximately 5 minutes per 1 inch (1.27 cm) thickness. Flip the fish after 3 minutes if the meat is thicker than 2.5 cm.
Method 3 of 3: Baking Fruits and Vegetables
Step 1. Place vegetables like peppers and tomatoes under the grill to burn and remove the skin
Step 2. Cook vegetables and fruit under the grill to give them a crunchy taste on the outside while preserving the softness and moisture content of the inside
Step 3. Use a baking dish so you can stir the vegetables and fruit if necessary
Step 4. Season the fruits and vegetables, or sprinkle them with oil or butter before baking
Step 5. Place the fruit and vegetables under the grill for about 5 minutes
Make sure you keep checking to make sure the fruit and vegetables don't burn.
Step 6. Try roasting pineapple, banana, mango, asparagus, zucchini, peach and pepper
