You can also use this tray for heating food. Another vital use of this tray is that you can place it in the bottom rack of the oven when you are grilling chicken or vegetables in the middle rack or while using the rotisserie mode to cook Tikkas and kababs. This will help in preventing juices from the chicken from falling on the heating rods below. 2. crumb tray: This is usually placed at the very bottom of the oven to collect any crumbs or pieces that may fall off during a baking or grilling process. It can be removed and cleaned. 3. Grill rack: Cake pans, cookie trays, muffin moulds can be placed over the grill rack or large slices of chicken, fish, etc can also be grilled by directly placing them over it. Alternately, the grill rack can be turned upside down so that skewers can be placed over it to grill kababs, chicken, paneer, etc. 4. Rotisserie spit: The rotisserie spit is a long rod which is used to grill whole chicken or make tikkas and kababs in Tandoori style. It rotates and hence the food is evenly cooked on all sides. 5. Tray holder: This is used to remove the hot grill rack and baking tray from the oven. 6. Skewers : The skewers can be used to prepare kababs, tikkas, grill small pieces of chicken or cubes of paneer and vegetables. During the grilling process, the skewers have to be turned once in a while to ensure uniform cooking. 7. Rotisserie handle : After using the rotisserie spit for grilling, the hot rod can be removed from the oven using this handle. With the given accessories, you can make puffs, pizzas, and grill or roast chicken and vegetables but to bake cakes, cookies, etc there are some cake pans and moulds that are necessary to be bought. preheating : Before we bake something, our oven needs to be heated to the proper temperature (specified in the recipe.). It can take 10-15 minutes to reach the right temperature. The act of turning 'ON' our oven and letting it heat up to the right temperature is referred to as "preheating".
