in order to obtain uniform heating effect.

3) Defrosted food should be consumed as soon as possible. It is not
advised to put back to fridge and freeze again.
COOKING TIPS
The following factors may affect the cooking result:
Food arrangement
Place thicker areas towards outside of dish, the thinner part towards
the centre and spread it evenly. Do not overlap if possible.
Cooking time length
Start cooking with a short time setting, evaluate it after times runs out
and extend it according to the actual need. Overcooking may result in
smoke and burns.
Cooking food evenly
Food such as chicken, hamburger or steak should be turned once
during cooking.
Depending on the type of food, if applicable, stir it from outside to
centre of dish once or twice during cooking.
Allow standing time
After cooking times is ended, leave the food in the oven for an
adequate length of time. This allows it to complete its cooking cycle and
cool it down in a gradual manner.

-
Steam coming out from all parts of food, not just the edge.

Joints of poultry can be moved easily
