Gas oven dial
200 °C
Fan-forced oven
Fan-forced ovens run about 20 °C hotter than conventional at the same dial setting, so gas mark 7 is 200 °C with the fan on. See the full oven temperature conversion chart.
This is the top end of everyday cooking — the temperature for roasting potatoes hard, blasting a pizza, starting a joint before dropping the heat, or finishing bread with a good crust. Note the ladder widens here: gas marks 6 and 7 are 20 °C apart, not the 10 °C steps lower down.
