10 AGA Cooking Methods

The AGA cooker is the master of all cooking methods

From quick stir-fries through to elaborate soufflés, the AGA excels at every style of cooking. AGA cakes are lighter, roasts are more succulent, chips crunchier. Yorkshire puddings rise more, steaks are juicier and pizzas are always crisp to perfection. There is nothing the AGA cannot do and everything it does it does better. It's even a whizz at ready meals for those more hectic days.

GRILL

(boiling plate and top of roasting oven)

Succulent steaks, cooked in an AGA grill pan using the intense heat of the AGA boiling plate, seared on the outside, sealing in flavour and juices, while the inside cooks to perfection. Easy full English breakfast grilled at the top of the roasting oven.

BOIL

(boiling plate)

The AGA boiling plate cooks so rapidly that fresh vegetables retain more their natural flavour, colour and nutrients.

FRY

(boiling plate)

 Creating crunchier-on-the-inside fried or sautéed chicken or fish.

ROAST

(roasting oven)

Roasts are superb – shrinkage and dryness are reduced, cooked evenly throughout because, unlike convention   cookers, the radiant heat comes from all directions, not just one. Roasted vegetables are full of flavour and     potatoes are brown and crispy.

TOAST

(boiling plate or simmering plate)

Famous AGA toast taste better, crunchy-on-the-outside and fluffy-in-the-middle. Carried out on the boiling     plate or on the simmering plate (with no toaster required) for toasted sandwiches.

SIMMER

(simmering plate or simmering oven)

The simmering plate heat is gentle for delicate sauces and heating milk. The AGA simmering oven slow     cooks for house – even overnight – gently coaxing stock, casseroles, soups, curries and bolognese to perfect tenderness.

BAKE

(baking oven)

Like a traditional baker's brick oven, the AGA roasting and baking ovens provide all-around, consistent radiant heat to create feathery pastries, ever-so-moist cakes and perfectly baked breads.

STEAM

(simmering oven)

 The legendary AGA simmering oven steams a sponge pudding to perfection without turning your kitchen into a sauna. Steaming root vegetables locks in their full flavour and nutrients.

CASSEROLE

(simmering oven)

The AGA simmering oven's gently persistent heat helps you create richer, juicier casseroles, stews, slow-oasts or braise cuts of meat.

STIR FRY

(boiling plate)

 Tackle Asian cookery with an AGA wok on the boiling plate for fast stir fries and quick cooking.
