Christmas Cake and the Turkey in a Fan Oven
Asked on 23 Oct 2017 by Annieblue
I've been using Delia's recipes for years but have just got a new Neff circotherm oven. Can you give me any advice on oven temperatures particularly for Delia's Christmas cake and roast turkey?

Hello,
If you want to bake the cake in the way we do you will need to select top and bottom heat and bake it at 140C.
Based on the advice given by the manufacturers, if you want to use the CircoTherm hot air setting, I would suggest 130C and check it at 2 hours.
Unfortunately we are not able to offer any tried and tested advice on cooking a stuffed turkey using a CircoTherm setting because we have only used conventional heat. The general advice we give, is to reduce the oven temperature by 20 degrees when using a fan setting.
In which case, for a 14lb stuffed turkey, that would be…
40 minutes at 200C
210 minutes at 150C
30 minutes at 180C
Kind regards
Lindsey
