• OVEN TEMPERATURE GUIDE

• 100C / 200C – super slow cooking for meats etc. similar to a slow
cooker.
• 180C / 350F – for most baked goods, cookies, cakes, pastries etc.
• 200C / 400F – for cooking everything else. Roasting veggies, fruit,
cooking baked dishes (like the moussaka below) and reheating food.
• 250C / 480F – aka ‘cranking it’. For pizza, fast roast fish and times
when I’m running super late.
OVEN TEMPERATURE GUIDE

• Note: For some ovens you can change your oven to F or C, whichever is easiest for you to use,
or you will see either F or C on your oven dial. If the recipe you are making uses F and your
oven dial only has C, use the guide above.
