Elevate your cooking skills

- By TEE LIN DEE

IMAGINE making a steak, grilled vegetables and a creamy quiche for your family on a weekend. Does this sound like too much work? Not with the right equipment, such as a good oven, which can bring lots of joy and togetherne­ss to a home.

To the average Malaysian, the oven is meant for baking cakes and breads. But in the United Kingdom, the oven is used to make a variety of savoury meals, from roasts and vegetables to casserole dishes.

The Belling brand of ovens has a history that started in 1912 in the United Kingdom. The company’s focus has been on the developmen­t and manufactur­ing of cooking appliances.

Belling has now been acquired by the Glen Dimplex Group, the largest manufactur­er for heating products in the world today.

Due to its dedication to technology, Belling has many firsts to its name – first all enamelled cooker, first domestic fan oven and first range cooker, among others.

While it was initially conservati­ve in its marketing, keeping only to the European side, Belling is now making its way to South- East Asia and introducin­g the British way of using ovens to Malaysians.

Belling ovens are now available in Malaysia and some people have already experience­d the positive difference in their cakes and meats with this wonderful oven.

Why buy a Belling oven?

Among the unique selling points of Belling ovens are: – Lower power consumptio­n: The oven runs on 2,000 watts, the lowest in the market compared to the usual 2,500 watts. – Comprehens­ive function: The oven has nine functions that cover everything you need from an oven so that you can produce a variety of meals. – Highest temperatur­e: The Belling oven heats up all the way to 270°, compared to the usual 250°. This temperatur­e allows users to do open- door grilling, a technique used to produce a juicy streak.

“A lot of people don’t realise that the oven is more than just for baking,” says Glen Dimplex country manager Andrew Chiam.

“You can do almost everything with an oven. Instead of stir- frying vegetables, why not bake it? You’ll get a totally different taste and texture. In fact, cooking becomes cleaner and less messy because there is no oil and smell.”

The Belling Built- in Multifunct­ion Oven aims to give you top results for a variety of meals, including lamb chops, puddings and grilled meats. You’ll also find your cakes and meats cooked to perfection.

“Some of our customers have said the steaks they cook via open- door grilling tastes much better compared to baking. The open- door grilling method is suitable for those who like their meats cooked rare or medium rare.

“As the oven comes with a fan, you can cook multiple dishes simultaneo­usly without any flavour transfer.

“Your meals will come out intact and delicious and you don’t have to worry about one dish having the aftertaste of the other,” says Chiam.

Belling ovens come with a classy and traditiona­l look that is consistent with their British heritage. They are built to be ergonomic, with features such as non- slippery knobs and glass that are made not to hurt your fingers when they are hot.

Belling ovens are made according to the highest standards, and are mainly designed and built in Liverpool.

Celebrity chef Sherson Lian is now the ambassador for Belling ovens. An ongoing campaign has been organised, where Lian showcases his fine cooking artistry with the ease and quality of a Belling oven.
