Microwave cooking advice
To cook/defrost food in a microwave
oven, the microwave energy must be able
to pass through the container to penetrate
the food. Therefore it is important to
choose suitable cookware.
It is important to turn, rearrange or stir
food to ensure even heating.
Standing time is necessary after
cooking, as it enables the heat to disperse
equally throughout the food.
Round/oval dishes are preferable to
square/oblong ones, as the food in the
corners tends to overcook.
Food characteristics
Composition Foods high in fat or sugar(e.g.Christmas pudding,mince pies) requireless heating
Density Food densitywill affect the amount of cooking time needed. Light porous foods, such

Aluminium foil/ / Small pieces of aluminium foil can be used to shield food from
foil containers overheating. Keep foil at least 2 cm from the oven walls, as
arcing may occur. Foil containers are not recommended

unless otherwise stated.
Adapting recipes for the microwave
oven
If you would like to adapt your favourite
recipes for the microwave, you should take
note of the following: Shorten cooking
times by a third to a half. Follow the
example of the recipes in this book.
Foods which have a high moisture content such as meat, fish, poultry, vegetables,
fruit, stews and soups can be prepared in
your microwave without any difficulty.
Onion soup
Utensils: Bowl with lid (2 l capacity)
4 soup bowls (200 ml)
Ingredients
10 g butter or margarine
100 g onions, sliced
800 ml meat stock
salt and pepper
2 slices bread
40 g grated cheese
Foods which have little moisture, such
as platters of food, should have the surface
moistened prior to heating or cooking.
The amount of liquid to be added to
raw foods, which are to be braised, should
be reduced to about two thirds of the
quantity in the original recipe. If necessary,
add more liquid during cooking.
The amount of fat to be added can be
reduced considerably. A small amount of
butter, margarine or oil is sufficient to
flavour food. For this reason your
microwave is excellent for preparing low-fat
foods as part of a diet.
1. Grease the bowl, add the sliced
onion, meat stock and the seasoning.
Cover and cook.
9-11 min. 900 W
2. Toast the slices of bread, cut them
into cubes and divide them among
the soup bowls. Pour the soup over
the toast cubes and sprinkle on the
cheese.
3. Place the bowls on the turntable, and
grill.
6-7 min. Grill
