COOKING LAMB
1. Arrange meat on a microwave rack (leg, roast, chops) or in an appropriate glass casserole (cubes).
2. Cover with wax paper and set on glass turntable in the microwave.
3. Calculate cooking time by multiplying weight of the meat by the time recommended per pound.
4. The microwave will cook on P-HI unless another power level is entered at the time of cooking. To choose
another power level and begin cooking, press Power continuously to program the recommended power level
shown below. Press the number pad to program the calculated time. Press START.
5. Check progress about halfway through the cooking time; turn over, rearrange or shield, as needed.
6. Within several minutes before the end of cooking check meat to determine if time needs adjusting. Wait until
after the stand time before making the final decision.
SOUPS
Making homemade soups is easier than ever in the microwave oven. Use leftover vegetables, chicken and meats
to create your own specialty. Freeze small amounts of leftovers until you have enough to try a new soup.
An efficient microwave method of soup making is to cook the vegetables first with just a little oil or butter, then add
the stock or broth and heat as desired. If you have no stock or broth, heat 1 cup of water and 1 bouillon cube (or 1
teaspoon bouillon granules) in a 2-cup glass measure on P-HI for 3 minutes. Season as desired.
Canned condensed soups are convenient to add to homemade vegetables for a quick but tasty soup. Our recipes
for mushroom and onion sauces can be used as soup bases with additional milk. Watch for package directions to
heat purchased soups in the microwave.
Once you have made some soup of your choice, freeze leftovers in 12-ounce portions. Then defrost on AUTO
DEFROST and reheat on P-HI for 4 minutes. Always stir several times during the heating cycle and before
serving.
