Techniques: Grilling

IN A MATTER OF MINUTES, BARBECUING CREATES SOME OF THE TASTIEST FLAVOURS POSSIBLE. IT WORKS BEST USING HIGH TEMPERATURES WHICH BROWN FOOD NICELY ON THE GRILL.

How it works

Real fans of grilled foods like to use ribbed grill plates to keep their vegetables, fish and meats tasting of summer all year round. These ribbed surfaces can be heated to very high temperatures in a short time, making it easy to get a crispy exterior on a steak and keep the juices, flavours and nutrients in the meat – just like cooking over hot coals. Grilling food is not just a quick method, but an easy and low-fat option, too. NEFF offers griddle plates for induction hobs; all you need to do is put them on the FlexZone, turn on the heat and get barbecuing.

Step 1

Take your steak out of the fridge an hour or so before you want to grill it. Use a pastry brush to spread a heat-resistant oil (e.g. rapeseed) over the griddle plate, then turn on the hob. Once the oil is hot, you can start grilling.

Step 2

Cook the meat for around 3 minutes on each side; thicker cuts will need to rest in a warm oven for a few minutes before being served. Pro tip: avoid piercing the meat to see whether it is cooked through as this will cause juices to seep out and make the meat dry.

Enjoy tasty flavours from browning fish, meat and vegetables

The NEFF griddle plate for induction hobs has a ceramic coating which makes it easier to cook with little to no fat and yet still enjoy tasty flavours.
