Placement of the food
• You will have the optimum outcome if
you spread the food equally on the con-
tainer. This method can be applied in
many ways with satisfactory results.
• You can cook large quantities of similar
items (e.g. potatoes) together. They will
cook better if you place them in evenly
spaced circles in the oven. Be careful not
to overlap the pieces.
• When cooking dishes of different shapes
and thicknesses, place the thicker parts
in the middle of the tray, as microwaves
will have a stronger effect on the outer
layers of these food. Therefore you will
have them cook faster.
• Place fish and other uneven food with
the tail on the edge of the tray.
• You can stack thinly cut pieces of meat
on top of each other. Thicker items such
as sausages and pieces of meat should
be placed side by side.
• Warm the broth and sauces in a different
plate. Narrow and deep plates are better
for this job than wide and shallow plates.
When heating broth, sauce or soup, the
containers should not be more than two-
thirds full.
• If you are cooking the whole fish, poke
holes to it so that the skin does not
burst.
• When using stretch film, bags or baking
paper, poke holes or leave an opening to
allow steam to escape.

• Small pieces of food will cook faster
than large pieces, equal pieces will cook
faster than uneven ones. For best res-
ults, cut your food into equal sized por-
tions.
Food height
• Very thick foods (usually roasts) will
cook faster on the bottom. That means
you may have to turn them several
times.
• Thick or dense parts can be placed in a
higher position so that the microwaves
can also affect the lower and middle part
of the piece.
Cooking tips
Factors effecting the microwave time:
• Microwave time depends on a few
factors. The heat of the ingredients used
in the recipe can significantly affect the
cooking time required. Therefore, a cake
made with ice-cold butter, milk, and eggs
will take longer to bake than a cake
made from room-temperature ingredi-
ents.
• Especially some recipes for bread, cake
and cream sauces, recommend remov-
ing it from the oven before it is fully
cooked. Such dishes kept closed outside
the oven, will allow the food to continue
to cook as the heat travels from the out-
side of it to the inside.
