General guide lines
Since microwave cooking differs from tradi-
tional cooking, the following guidelines should
considered when using the oven.
If the food is undercooked.
Check if the correct power level was selected.
Check that the time selected was sufficient.
Remember, recipes are only approximate and
times may differ depending on weight, density,
initial temperatures and so forth.
Check to see if the container was appropriate for
the type of meal being cooked.
If the food is dried out, overcooked or burnt.
Check if the correct power level was selected.
Check if the time selected was too long
Remember, recipes are only approximate and
times may differ depending on weight, density,
initial temperatures and so forth.
Points to remember when defrosting.
The shape of the food alters defrosting time.
Shallow rectangular shapes defrost faster than
deep spherical shapes.
Separate pieces or slices as they defrost to speed
up the process.
Shield sensitive food areas with thin strips of alu-
minium foil to prevent pre-mature cooking.
Defrosting works best when the food is thawed in
the oven and allowed to defrost completely dur-
ing a standing time.
Quantity of food.
The more food you wish to cook, the longer it
takes. Double the quantity takes nearly double the
time. For example, a single potato might take four
minutes to cook while two potatoes require seven
minutes.
