Cooking with microwaves... 
1. The  greater  the  amount  of  food,  the  longer  the  cooking  time.  Keep  in 
mind that: 

  Double the quantity » double the time 

  Half the quantity » half the time 

2. The lower the temperature, the longer the cooking time. 
3. Foods containing a lot of liquid heat up more quickly. 
4. Cooking  will  be  more  uniform  if  the  food  is  evenly  distributed  on  the 
turntable. If you put dense foods on the outside part of the plate and less 
dense ones on the centre of the plate,  you can heat up different types of 
food simultaneously. 
5. You  can  open  the  oven  door  at  any  time.  When  you  do  this  the  oven 
switches  off  automatically.  The  microwave  will  only  start  working  again 
when you close the door and press the start key.  
6. Foods  that  are  covered  require  less  cooking  time  and  retain  their 
characteristics better. The lids used must let microwaves pass through and 
have small holes that allow steam to escape
