Product Overview

Ever wonder how the pros get that perfect, golden crunch on breaded fish or chicken without a deep-fat fryer? Chances are, they're using a specialist bit of kit just like this. The Lincat Invoq 1/1 Gastronorm Tray 60mm isn't your average metal pan; it’s a purpose-built tool designed to work in harmony with Lincat combi ovens, delivering seriously impressive cooking results.

Crafted for fast-paced commercial kitchens, from bustling gastropubs to school canteens and  takeaways, this tray is all about performance. Its unique aluminium alloy construction boasts incredible heat-transfer properties. This means it gets screaming hot, fast, and  cooks evenly across the entire surface. While many kitchens rely on a standard stainless steel 1/1 gastronorm pan 60mm, this specialist tray offers a significant upgrade for roasting and  finishing breaded or battered foods.

The result? You get that desirable crispy texture, use far less fat for healthier meals, and  simplify your kitchen workflow. It’s a small addition that makes a massive difference to your menu, your costs, and  your consistency. If you want to elevate your oven-fried dishes, this is the way to do it.

Expert Review and  Insights

It’s easy to overlook something as simple as a tray, but this is where Lincat shows its class. The Invoq tray isn't just a container; it's an active cooking tool. Its ability to transfer heat so efficiently is what separates a good result from a great one, giving chefs the consistency they need for high-turnover dishes without the hassle of a fryer.

  • Pros: The heat conductivity is exceptional, creating a remarkably crisp finish on foods.
  • Cons: Its specialist surface means it's less of an all-rounder than a standard steel pan.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Anchor Inn, a busy seaside pub in Whitby, wanted to expand their menu but were struggling with the space and  ventilation requirements for an additional deep-fat fryer. They needed a way to produce crispy, oven-finished fish and  chips using their existing Lincat combi oven.

"We were sceptical that a tray could make such a difference, but the results are undeniable. Our oven-baked fish is now as crispy as the fried version, and  our customers love it. It's also much easier for the team to manage during a hectic service."

Liam O'Connell – Head Chef

They successfully added three new 'oven-fried' dishes to the menu, increasing food sales by 15% in the first quarter.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Always ensure the tray is clean and  dry before use.
  • For best results, place the tray in the oven during the pre-heat cycle.
  • Slide the tray carefully onto the correct runners in your combi oven.
  • Avoid using sharp metal utensils like knives or scrapers on the surface to prevent damage.

Keeping It Going

  • Allow the tray to cool down before cleaning to avoid warping.
  • Wash by hand using warm, soapy water and  a non-abrasive sponge or cloth.
  • For stubborn residue, soak the tray rather than using harsh scourers.
  • Store flat or in a gastronorm rack to prevent dents and  scratches.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Gastronorm Tray

Not sure which GN tray is the right tool for the job? It’s not just about size. Here are a few things to keep in mind to make sure you get the perfect pan for your kitchen.

Material Matters

Stainless steel is the all-round workhorse, great for general use. Aluminium is for when you need fast, even heat, like with this Lincat Invoq tray. Polycarbonate is for cold storage.

Size and  Depth

1/1 GN is the standard full size, but trays come in halves, thirds, and  even smaller. The depth (e.g., 20mm, 60mm, 100mm) depends on what you're cooking – shallow for roasting, deep for holding sauces.

Perforated vs. Solid

Solid trays are for roasting, baking, and  holding liquids. Perforated trays are essential for steaming, allowing steam to circulate fully around the food for a quick and  even cook.

Specialist Coatings

Look out for non-stick or specialist surfaces like this Invoq imperial gastronorm tray. They are designed for specific tasks like baking or cooking delicate items without sticking.

Brand Compatibility

While most GN trays are universal, some, like this one, are engineered to give the best performance when paired with the same brand of oven, unlocking extra features or efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does 1/1 GN actually mean?

A: 'Gastronorm' (GN) is a European standard for kitchenware sizes. 1/1 is the full-size base unit, measuring 530 x 325mm, making equipment interchangeable between brands.

Q: Is this tray non-stick?

A: It's designed with a special surface that excels at roasting breaded products with minimal sticking, which also helps to reduce the amount of fat or oil you need.

Q: Can I use it in any brand of combi oven?

A: Yes, as a standard 1/1 Gastronorm tray, it will fit in any commercial oven that takes that size. However, it is specifically engineered to deliver the best results in Lincat Invoq ovens.

Q: Why is it made of aluminium alloy and not stainless steel?

A: The aluminium alloy provides significantly faster and  more even heat transfer, which is key to achieving a crispy, 'fried' texture on roasted food. It's a specialist material for a specialist job.

Q: Is it dishwasher safe?

A: To protect the specialist surface and  ensure its longevity, we strongly recommend hand washing this tray with a non-abrasive sponge.

Q: Can I use this for wet dishes like a casserole?

A: While it can hold liquids, this tray's main strength is in dry roasting. For wet dishes, a standard stainless steel gastronorm pan is usually a better choice.

Q: What's the main benefit of the 60mm depth?

A: The 60mm depth is versatile, providing enough height to contain items like chicken portions or chunky fish fillets securely, while still being shallow enough to promote excellent air circulation for crisping.

Q: Can I cut food directly on the tray?

A: We'd advise against it. Using knives or other sharp metal utensils directly on the surface could damage the coating and  affect its performance.

What's the Deal with Aluminium Alloy? Unlocking a Better Crunch.

Ever notice how a thin pizza stone gives you a crispier base than a thick metal oven tray? That's all down to heat transfer, and  it's the secret behind this tray's fantastic performance. While standard stainless steel is a tough workhorse, it's relatively slow to heat up. This specialist Lincat 60mm steam oven tray is made from an aluminium alloy, which is a superstar at conducting heat.

Think of it like the difference between a heavy-bottomed stew pot and  a nimble wok. The wok gets intensely hot almost instantly, searing food on contact. This tray does the same thing inside your oven. It absorbs the heat rapidly and  distributes it evenly across the surface, flash-cooking the coating on breaded items to create that light, ultra-crispy texture you'd normally only get from a fryer. It's clever science that delivers simply delicious results.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Pubs & Gastropubs: Ideal for upgrading your basket meals, giving scampi, chicken goujons, and  chips a superior crunch.
  • Fish & Chip Shops: A fantastic alternative for oven-baking breaded or battered fish with a fried texture.
  • Contract Caterers (Schools & Hospitals): Perfect for cooking large batches of healthier chicken nuggets or fish fingers consistently.
  • Takeaway Kitchens: Guarantees a uniform, crispy result on popular items like fried chicken, even during the busiest rushes.
