    Hi, wanted to try the potato wedges. Instructions state to set at 23c degrees, whats that ?

  • Sarah says:

    230c sorry!

  • Tony says:

    Do you cook them in the bowl on the lower rack or put them direct onto the rack?

  • Sarah says:

    230 degrees Celsius

  • Sarah says:

    Doesnt make a lot of difference, I use the rack

  • Jacquie says:

    This is the first one I have read that sounds as if it is actually written for the halogen oven! But I don’t believe that at 230c it is going to take 25 to 30 minutes for them to cook – even on the lower rack.

    I usually use something on the rack as the bars are too far apart and things fall through. Why don’t they make a finer grid rack as the things do cook better when the heat can get all around them.

    Why can’t they give us some whole meal recipes? What are we supposed to eat with our potato wedges? Can’t we cook whatever it is at the same time? What I need to know is what cooks at the top and what at the bottom, where it is protected from the intense heat.

    i totally agree with everything that has been said, i have bought the books and followed the times and temps and ended up with bone dry chicken breasts,burnt full chickens and chops,and handling is totally ridiculous when you take out the bowl to clean, the weight of the actual heater over balances so where’s the health and safety in that,the electric lead is not long enough,i am biting the bullet and realise it is time wasted and money lost.

Meringue Recipe


Halogen Oven Recipes



Meringue Recipe

2oz Granulated Sugar
2 Egg Whites (large Fresh Eggs) room temperature
2oz Caster Sugar

Cut a round piece of baking parchment to fit the bottom of your Halogen Oven

Whisk egg whites with a mixer till it forms soft peaks.
Gradually add sugar a bit at a time till peaks return and mixture is shiny and glossy.

Place large spoonfuls (approx 6) on the baking parchment.
Cook on low heat setting (1) for 1 hour.

Meringues will be lovely and white and won’t need drying out as they do with a conventional oven.
You can lift them right away and make next batch.

When meringues are complete, whip up double or whipping cream and place large amount between two meringue shells and place in muffin paper case.
Enjoy!

    No, no, no!!! Meringues should be gorgeously chewy on the inside and crunchy melt in the mouth on the outside, the halogen didn’t deliver, thestrawberries and cream just hid the disaster!! For meat, the halogen delivers everytime but meringue? No, I’m going back to my reliable gas stove!!

  • Heidi says:

    Just tried this receipt and it turned out wonderful am so happy! Have tried to make meringue many times before and always a flop this was my first try in my halogen oven and I am so impressed.
    Thanks so much for the receipt

  • Heather says:

    Have I missed the vital information I can not find a temperature . I hope they come out dry and crisp ,I dont like them chewy, like a pavlova!

  • Stu says:

    If you want them crispy add a teaspoon of vinegar to the mix. :)
