The
Automatic-Programme
is suitable
for cooking meat and poultry which are
not required to be crisped or browned,
fish, soups, casseroles and vegetables.
The
Microwave mode
is suitable for
cooking noodles, etc, pasta, rice and
semolina pudding.
First select 850 W and then turn down
to 450 W to continue cooking, or 150 W
for simmering.
Fan Heat
is recommended for every-
day cooking, e.g. cakes, pastry, me-
ringues, pizza, potatoes and other
vegetables.
Select a
Combination programme
if
you want a shorter cooking time and a
browned finish.
The
Mic Grill Combination
programme
is very suitable for cook-
ing and crisping or browning.
Microwave
Place the food in a microwave-safe
dish and cover.
Place the dish on the oven floor.
Add a little water to vegetables which
have been kept stored. Vegetable cook-
ing times depend on the texture of the
vegetable. Fresh vegetables contain
water and usually cook more quickly.
Stir and turn food at least once during
cooking. With the automatic pro-
gramme an audible tone sounds as a
reminder.
Food with skin or peel, such as toma-
toes, some types of sausage, jacket po-
tatoes and aubergines, should be
pricked or the skin cut several times be-
fore to prevent food from bursting.
Boiling eggs in the microwave oven is
only possible with a special egg-boiling
device, available from specialist
shops.Otherwise the eggs will burst.
The yolk must be pricked several times
first with a sharp object if cooking
eggs out of their shells.
