Potatoes
Notes
■
Boiled potatoes: cut into equal sized pieces. Add a little salt
and 2 tablespoons of water for every 100 g of potatoes.
■
Potatoes boiled in their skins: use potatoes of equal size.
Wash the potatoes and prick the skin several times. Place the
wet potatoes in a dish. Do not add water.
Rice
Notes
■
Rice foams a lot during cooking. Therefore, use a high-sided
dish with a lid. Enter the uncooked weight (without liquid).
Add two to two and a half times the amount of liquid to the
rice.
■
Do not use boil-in-the-bag rice.
Vegetables
Notes
■
Fresh vegetables: cut into pieces of equal size. Add
2 tablespoons of water for every 100 g vegetables.
■
Frozen vegetables: this programme is only suitable for
blanched, not pre-cooked vegetables. It is not suitable for
frozen vegetables in cream sauce. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of
water per 100 g. Do not add water to spinach or red
cabbage.
Resting times
Some dishes need to rest in the oven after the programme has
ended.
Programme table
Tested for you in our cooking studio.
Here you will find a selection of recipes and the ideal settings
for them. We show you which microwave power setting is best
for your dish and there are tips about cookware and
preparation.
Notes
■
The values in the table always apply to food placed into the
cooking compartment when it is cold and empty. Only
preheat the appliance if the table specifies that you should do
so.
■
The times specified in the tables are only guidelines. They
depend on the quality and consistency of the food.
■
Additional accessories may be obtained from specialist
retailers or from the after-sales service.
■
Always use an oven cloth or oven gloves when taking
accessories or cookware out of the cooking compartment.
Defrosting, heating up and cooking with the
microwave
The following tables provide you with numerous options and
settings for the microwave.
The times specified in the tables are only guidelines. They may
vary according to the ovenware used, the quality, temperature
and consistency of the food.
Time ranges are often specified in the tables. Set the shortest
time first and then extend the time if necessary.
It may be that you have different quantities from those specified
in the tables. A rule of thumb can be applied:
Double the amount - almost twice the cooking time,
Half the amount - half the cooking time.
Stir or turn the food several times during the heating time.
Check the temperature.
