Generally the following recommendations apply:
P100
- (HIGH output = 900W) used for fast cooking or reheating e.g.
for casseroles, hot beverages, vegetables etc.
P80
- (MEDIUM HIGH output = 720W) used for longer cooking of
dense foods such as roast joints, meat loaf and plated meals, also for
sensitive dishes such as sponge cakes. At this reduced setting, the
food will cook evenly without over cooking at the sides.
P50
- (MEDIUM output = 450W) for dense foods which require a long
cooking time when cooked conventionally, e.g. beef casserole, it is
advisable to use this power setting to ensure the meat will be tender.
P30
- (MEDIUM LOW output = 270 W Defrost setting) to defrost, select
this power setting, to ensure that the dish defrosts evenly. This setting is
also ideal for simmering rice, pasta, dumplings and cooking egg custard.
P10
- (LOW output = 90 W) for gentle defrosting, e.g. cream gateaux or
pastry.
