Worked example

The packet says 180°C for 25 minutes.

  1. Take 20°C off the temperature: 180 − 20 = 160°C.
  2. Take 20% off the time: 25 × 0.8 = 20 minutes.
  3. Start checking a couple of minutes early, at about 18 minutes.

Foods often cooked at 180°C

  • Fish fillets and fish cakes
  • Chicken thighs and drumsticks
  • Sausage rolls and pastry bakes
  • Reheating leftovers

If the packet's 180°C is for an oven without a fan, switch the converter to Conventional.
