I don’t even think about cleaning my dirty oven anymore

I don’t even think about cleaning my dirty oven anymore: a friend showed me this trick and now it’s like new, effortlessly!
Place two dishwasher tablets in a metal bowl.
Pour hot water over them and let them dissolve. If necessary, you can mash them lightly with a fork to speed up the dissolution process.
Preparing the Oven
Remove the rack and put on protective gloves.
Soak a sponge with the prepared solution and apply it to the entire surface of the oven, without requiring intense rubbing, just to moisten.
Dip a few sheets of paper towels into the solution and place them on the oven surface.
Also place damp paper towels on the oven door glass and leave to act.
Cleaning and Rinsing
Meanwhile, use the remaining solution to clean the stove.
After about half an hour, return to the oven, remove the paper towels and rinse with clean water using a sponge.
