Cooking Vegetables by Combination
Some vegetables and vegetable dishes benefit in appearance and flavour from being cooked with the addition of convection heat along
with microwave power.
Your oven has two automatic combination settings: one for roast vegetables and the other for potato bake. You may also wish to cook
your favourite vegetables on manual combination. The following charts will give you a guide as to which combination settings to use.
