Increase or shorten the length of the cooking times according to the following rule: Double the amount = almost double the time, Half the amount = half the time The food got too dry. Set shorter cooking time or select lower microwave power. The food is not defrosted, hot or cooked after the Set longer cooking time or set higher power. Note that large time came to an end. dishes need longer time. After the cooking time comes to an end, the food is overheated at the edge but is still not ready in the middle. To get better results for rice use a flat, wide dish.

Next time set a lower power and a longer time. Stir liquids halfway through, e.g. soup. Defrosting Always defrost roast with the fat side down. Do not defrost covered meat because this may cause cooking instead of defrosting. Always defrost whole poultry breast side down. Cooking Always remove chilled meat and poultry from the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before cooking. Let the meat, poultry, fish and vegetables stay covered after cooking. Brush a little oil or melted butter over the fish. Add 30 - 45 ml of cold water for every 250 g of vegetables. Cut the fresh vegetables into even size pieces before cooking. Cook all vegetables with a cover on the container. Grilling Grill flat food items in the middle of the grill rack. Turn the food over halfway through the set time and continue grilling.
