How a microwave oven works Microwaves are high-frequency electromagnetic waves; the energy released enables food to be cooked or reheated without changing either the form or the colour. • • 04 Oven Use You can use your microwave to: Defrost Cook Cooking Principle 1. The microwaves generated by the magnetron are distributed uniformly by using stirrer distribution system. The food is thus cooked evenly. 2. The microwaves are absorbed by the food up to a depth of about 1 inch (2.5 cm).
Using microwave mode Microwaves are high frequency electromagnetic waves. In microwave cooking, microwave energy penetrates food, attracted and absorbed by its water, fat and sugar content. The microwaves cause the molecules in the food to move rapidly. The rapid movement of these molecules creates friction and the resulting heat cooks the food. Setting Microwave Mode 1 Turn MODE SELECTOR to microwave position. Time and power level will appear on display.

Microwave cooking guide General guidelines Food suitable for microwave cooking Covering during cooking 04 Oven Use Many kinds of food are suitable for microwave cooking, including fresh or frozen vegetables, fruit, pasta, rice, grains, beans, fish, and meat. Sauces, custard, soups, steamed puddings, preserves, and chutneys can also be cooked in a microwave oven. Generally speaking, microwave cooking is ideal for any food that would normally be prepared on a hob.
Cooking guide for fresh vegetables Use a suitable glass Pyrex bowl with lid. Add 30-45 ml cold water (2-3 tbsp) for every 250 g unless another water quantity is recommended (see table). Cook covered for the minimum time (see table). Continue cooking to get the result you prefer. Stir once during and after cooking. Add salt, herbs or butter after cooking. Cover during the 3 minute standing time. Hint Cut fresh vegetables into even sized pieces. The smaller they are cut the quicker they are cooked.
Food Potatoes Time (min) Standing time (min) Instructions 250 500 4-5 7-8 3 Weigh the peeled potatoes and cut them into similar sized halves or quarters. 250 5-6 3 Cut turnip cabbage into small cubes. Cooking guide for rice and pasta Rice Pasta Use a large glass Pyrex bowl with lid. (Note that rice doubles in volume during cooking.) Cook covered. After cooking time is over, stir before letting stand. Add salt or herbs and butter.
Reheating Your microwave oven will reheat food in a fraction of the time a conventional oven takes. Arranging and Covering Avoid reheating large items such as joints of meat since they tend to overcook and dry out before the centre is piping hot. You will have more success reheating smaller pieces. Keeping food covered while heating will also help prevent drying. Power Levels Different power levels can be used for reheating foods.
Reheating liquids Take special care when heating liquids. To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, place a spoon or glass stick in the beverage. Stir during heating and always stir after heating. Allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched off to allow the temperature to even out. Baby Food Extra caution should also be exercised when reheating baby foods. Put food into deep ceramic plate. Cover with plastic lid. Stir well after reheating.
Portion Time (min) Standing time (min) Minced beef 250 g 500 g 6-7 10-12 15-30 Pork steaks 250 g 7-8 Place the meat on the ceramic plate. Shield thinner edges with aluminium foil.
