Preparing a raclette and using the grill

Lay the grill plate (ribbed side up) on top of the two metal supports, making sure
that it is firmly in place.
If you are using the stone grill plate (accessory), place it so that the juice groove is
on top and the slits below fit over the metal supports.
Turn the temperature control dial to the left to the «–» symbol (= lowest tempera-
ture).
Plug the raclette grill into the mains power supply to begin using it.
☞
If you are using an extension lead, make sure that it is suitable for cur-
rents of 10 A.
Make sure that the power cord is located so that it will not be tripped
over, causing the appliance to fall off the table.
Turn the temperature control dial about half-way to the right and preheat your
raclette grill without the serving trays for approximately 5 minutes (or 20 minutes
if you are using the stone grill plate).
Place a slice of raclette cheese (about 5 mm thick) on a serving tray and slide the
tray under the grill.
You may place various other ingredients on the tray along with the cheese, for
example onion rings, garlic, chanterelles, raw ham, bacon, vegetables and fruit
cut into small pieces etc.
Make sure that the ingredients do not touch the heating element as they will
burn.
☞
Season the cheese only after it has melted as the seasoning will burn
under the high heat, producing smoke.
Wait until the cheese has melted, then take hold of the tray by its handle and pull
it out from under the grill. Using the spatula, slide the melted cheese off the serv-
ing tray and onto your plate. Raclette is usually served with boiled potatoes, pearl
onions, gherkins and fresh salad.
CAUTION: The raclette serving trays and raclette grill are very hot at this
point. Hold the trays only by their plastic handles.
