TIPS

Braised and stewed meat cooked in a
microwave has a slightly firm texture and
therefore it is essential to purchase good
quality meats.

When cooking a casserole, place a saucer
or small upturned plate over the meat to
keep it submerged in the juices.

How to roast a joint by microwave

To roast basic joints of meat place the joint
onto the rack of a microwave roasting set
and cover with a dome lid. Alternatively use
a large, shallow dish and place the joint on
an upturned saucer and cover with cling
film.

ROASTING BAGS

Roasting bags are useful when split up one
side to tent a joint for roasting by power and
time.

Do not use the metal twists supplied.

How to cook small cuts of meat by
microwave

Some cuts of meat can be cooked
successfully by microwave although due to
their short cooking times and no heat
source, they will not crisp and brown.

They should always be cooked on a
microwave rack to lift them out of their
juices.

Crispy Bacon - place on a microwave safe
rack (optional extra obtainable from
cookware shops). Cover with a plain piece
of kitchen towel to minimise splatter. Cook
on HIGH power for approx. 45 secs. per
rasher, or until desired crispness is
achieved.
