on using this programme.
Microwave h
This method is suitable for cooking noo
-
dles, pasta, rice and semolina pudding
etc.
First select 850 W and then turn down
to 450 W to continue cooking, or 150 W
for simmering.
Place the food in a microwave-safe dish
and cover it.
Place the dish on the oven floor.
Vegetable cooking times depend on the
texture of the vegetable. Fresh vegeta-
bles contain more water than vegeta-
bles which have been stored and usu-
ally cook more quickly. Add a little wa-
ter to vegetables which have been kept
stored. Stir and turn food at least once
during cooking.
Food with a thick skin or peel, such as
tomatoes, sausages, jacket potatoes
and aubergines, should be pierced or
cut in several places to allow steam to
escape and prevent the food from
bursting.
Eggs can only be cooked in their shells
in the microwave oven in a specially
designed egg-boiling device available
from specialist shops. Similarly, hard-
boiled eggs should not be reheated in
the microwave oven as this may lead to
the eggs bursting, even once they have
been removed from the oven.
Eggs can be cooked without their shells
in the microwave oven only if the yolk
membrane has been punctured several
times first. The pressure could other
-
wise cause the egg yolk to explode.
