I have one of these things in Rooster brand ( a Homepro Cheapie).  Some genius in the family has thrown out the manual /sample recipe book that came with it.  I have used it a few times but would like a link to a list of basic recipes plus times for roasting meat & veges etc.It runs on a timer for up to 1 hour & I think 200 degrees C.  Did one chicken, the meat was fine but veges not cooked properly.  Just need to get the basics sorted.for general use.  Great for warming frozen pizzas.

I'd be interested in reading one.  I mostly use mine to freshen up frozen bread and make baked french fries.  It's good for baking breads too.  Use round pans instead of rectangular or square ones; so you have to convert volume sizes.

Only your reply so I went onto Google     Recipes for Turbo Convection Oven.  there are PDF's there for the Kambrook & the George Forman ovens plus lots of other useful stuff.  Figuring out the correct description to search under was the hard bit.   Good luck.

I use mine all of the time and it's 16 years old, it's great.  Cooked a whole chicken in it yesterday, made baking powder biscuits this mornung and cooked a pumpkin pie in it this afternoon.  I only use the big floor oven to cook cakes and slow roasted beef that needs to sit in the heat for a long time after the oven is turned off.  There are many recipes on the net as posted above.

16 years my god.  I went and bought a new one after 3 years because I was worried about the old one, and they were on sale.  I did get a smaller one - heats the kitchen less.  The Vie de France Yamazaki bakery that I like is a ways away from the house so I buy enough for a few weeks and freeze the bread and then toast it a bit in the turbo oven to thaw.  The bread is all different sizes so it works better than a toaster plus I can watch it (glass bowl) and take it out before it browns too much.

Why not make your own bread!

1kg strong plain flour (32bht)

500g Fermiplan red yeast (100bht, enough for 75 loaves)

 

with a measuring jug,

700 ml flour (about 1/2 Kg)

300 ml water

15 ml yeast

 

dissolve yeast in water, pour water onto flour in mixing bowl.

stir until mixed, knead for 5 minutes

put bowl in tesco plastic bag and leave to rise for 90 mins

put in loaf tin (or divide into 10 rolls)

put in plastic bag leave to rise for 60 mins

 

preheat oven to 220c

put dough in oven for 10 mins, turn down to 175c

Rolls, after 10 mins turn over, finished in another 5 (25 mins total)

Loaf, after 15 mins turn over, finished in another 10 (35 mins total)

 

Perfect every time.

Works out at about 16bht a loaf.

I cultured my own sourdough starter and then I bought a couple of kinds of yeast from the bakery store and different kinds of flour and mixes of flour.  Yamazaki makes better bread than I can by a long shot.  So now I buy it and the bugs in my kitchen that ate the flour I spilled are starving.

Brought a bench-top bread oven with me for that, but do not eat as much bread now & lost 8kg, mainly from that, I think.

OP ... it is just a type of convection oven ... many recipes all over the internet.   Just watch out for the conversion of Fahrenheit to Celsius... Some units have a dual scale on the dial...
