Roast help!

[Beach Mama]

My oven has a conventional mode with no fan, or a fan mode.

It is an Ilve wizz bang and I can't find the manual! We are doing a massive lamb roast as well as a rib eye - do I use the fan or non-fan mode!??

if oyu use the van, drop the temperature a little and make sure you keep an eye on it
we had, until recently, a non-fan oven and now have a fan forced - cooks much quicker in the fan forced.
i can find the manual for times for fan forced if you want?

I used a fan for my roast turkey last year, I just dropped the temp I think 10 or 20 degrees below the conventional oven temp? I think it's 20. I reckon you could do either? Does fan dry out the meat at all, or will you use foil? Am I actually helping, or just creating more questions.....sorry...

Im thinking no fan eeek, and the recipe we are using says to use foil after 20 and no foil after the last 20! Will keep searching for our manual!

Have you tried googling your manual? I always do that when a manual goes missing. xo

Fan will cook more evenly, so you won't need to worry about turning trays/swapping shelves during cooking. Generally you reduce the temp by 20 degrees C and cook for the same length of time as per a conventional oven.

Yes, most manuals are online. If you use the fan drop it by 20 degrees (it's the standard drop). GL!
