Factors which affect Microwave in the following stages of cooking

1. Density of food / [kk| inkFkks± dk ?kuRo
Light, porous food such as cakes and breads cook more quickly than heavy, dense foods such as roasts and casseroles.

2. Height of food / [kk| inkFkks± dh Å¡pkbZ
The upper portion of tall food, particularly roasts, will cook more quickly than the lower portion.

3. Bone and fat content of food / [kk| inkFkks± esa olk (fat) o gìh dh ek=kk
Bones conduct heat and fat cooks more quickly than meat.

4. Quantity of food / [kk| inkFkZ dh ek=kk
The more food you place in the oven, the longer the cooking time.

5. Shape of food / [kk| inkFkZ dk vkdkj-izdkj
Microwaves penetrate only about 2 cm into food, the interior portion of thick foods are cooked as the heat generated on the
outside travels inward. Only the outer edge of food is cooked by microwave energy; the rest is cooked by conduction.

1. Covering / vkoj.k
A cover traps heat and steam which causes food to cook more quickly.

2. Browning / Hkwjk ;k dqjdqjk djuk
Meats and poultry that are cooked fifteen minutes or longer will brown lightly in their own fat.

3. Arranging and spacing / Hkkstu dks rjrhc ls j[kuk o [kkyh LFkku NksM+uk
It will heat more evenly if if placed in the oven on equal distance apart, preferably in a circular pattern. Never stack foods on top
of one another.

4. Stirring / fgykuk
Stir in order to spread and redistribute heat. Always stir from the outside towards the centre as the outside of the food heats
first.

5. Turning over / iyVuk
Large, tall foods such as roots and whole chickens should be turned so that the top and bottom will cook evenly.

6. Shielding / <duk
Strips of aluminium foil (which block microwaves) can be placed over the corners or edges of square and rectangular foods to
prevent those portions from overcooking.

1. Standing time / LVsf.Max Vkbe
Foods are often allowed to stand for 3 to 10 minutes after being removed from the microwave oven. Usually the foods are
covered during standing time to retain heat unless they are supposed to be dry in texture (some cakes and biscuits, for
example). Standing allows foods to finish cooking and also helps flavour blend and develop.
