We are glad you have chosen to purchase a PANASONIC microwave oven. Before operating this oven, please
read these instructions carefully and completely, and keep them for further reference.
If you have only used a microwave oven for reheating and defrosting, with Panasonic’s Inverter Technology you
can be reassured of excellent results when cooking a variety of foods, as the ‘soft’ penetration of microwave
energy to the centre of food helps prevent over cooking on edges and surfaces. Foods can now be gently
simmered without the concern of boil over.
After reading the introductory chapter, we are sure you will be able to master the basic techniques and thereby
develop a fi rm understanding of your new oven. This book includes recipes from starters to desserts. After trying
our recipes be sure to adapt your favourite recipes to microwave methods.
Start experimenting now, and enjoy the fi rst class results you will achieve by using your new microwave oven.
The serial number of this product may be found on
the back side of the oven. You should note the model
number and serial number of this oven in the space
provided and retain this book as a permanent record
of your purchase for future reference.

Important Safety Instructions
Precautions to be taken when
using Microwave Ovens for
Heating Foodstuffs
INSPECTION FOR DAMAGE:
A microwave oven should only be used if an
inspection confirms all of the following conditions:
1. The grille is not damaged or broken.
2. The door fits squarely and securely and opens and
closes smoothly.
3. The door hinges are in good condition.
4. The metal plates of a metal seal on the door are
neither buckled nor deformed.
5. The door seals are neither covered with food nor
have large burn marks.
PRECAUTIONS:
Microwave radiation from microwave ovens can cause
harmful effects if the following precautions are not
taken:
1. Never tamper with or deactivate the interlocking
devices on the door.
2. Never poke an object, particularly a metal object,
through a grille or between the door and the oven
while the oven is operating.
3. Never place saucepans, unopened cans or other
heavy metal objects in the oven.
4. Do not let other metallic articles, e.g. fast food foil
containers, touch the side of the oven.
5. Clean the oven cavity, the door and the seals with
water and a mild detergent at regular intervals.
Never use any form of abrasive cleaner that may
scratch or scour surfaces around the door.
6. Always use the oven with the cookware
recommended by the manufacturer.
7. Never operate the oven without a load (i.e. an
absorbing material such as food or water) in the
oven cavity unless specifically allowed in the
manufacturer’s literature.
8. For horizontally hinged doors, never rest heavy
objects such as food containers on the door while
it is open.
9. Do not place sealed containers in the microwave
oven. Baby bottles fitted with a screw cap or a teat
are considered to be sealed containers.
10. This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
11. Young children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
12. It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent
person to carry out any service or repair operation
that involves the removal of a cover which gives
protection against exposure to microwave energy.
13. The surfaces are liable to get hot during use.
Practical Hints:
1. For initial use of COMBINATION, STEAM, GRILL,
OVEN, and CRISPY GRILL, if you see white
smoke arise, it is not malfunction.
2. Exterior oven surfaces, including air vents on
the cabinet and the oven door will get hot during
COMBINATION, STEAM, GRILL, OVEN, and
CRISPY GRILL. Use care when opening or closing
door and when inserting or removing food and
accessories.
3. The oven has two grill heaters situated in the
top of the oven. After using the COMBINATION,
STEAM, GRILL, OVEN, and CRISPY GRILL
functions, the ceiling will be very hot.
4. The accessible parts may become hot when
COMBINATION, STEAM, GRILL, OVEN, and CRISPY
GRILL is in use. Children should be kept away.
5. Before using COMBINATION, STEAM, GRILL,
OVEN, or CRISPY GRILL functions for the
first time, operate the oven without food and
accessories on OVEN 220 °C for 10 minutes. This
will allow the oil that is used for rust protection to
be burned off. This is the only time that the oven is
operated completely empty.
Important Instructions
WARNING—To reduce the risk of burns, electric
shock, fire, injury to persons or excessive microwave
energy:
1. Read all instructions before using the microwave

13. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition
could lead to deterioration of the surface that
could adversely affect the life of the appliance and
possibly result in a hazardous situation.
Circuits
Your microwave ovens should be operated on
a separate circuit from other appliances. The
voltage used must be the same as specified on this
microwave oven. Failure to do this may cause the
power board fuse to blow, and/or food to cook slower.
Do not insert higher value fuse in the power board.
Earthing Instructions
This microwave oven must be earthed. In the event
of an electrical short circuit, earthing reduces the risk
of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current. This microwave oven is equipped with
a cord having an earthing wire with an earthing plug.
The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and earthed.
WARNING—Improper use of the earthing plug can
result in a risk of electric shock.

inspected and complies with the safety requirements
of government notice 466 of March 1981, and
complies with the Radio Regulation of government
notice 587 of March 1986.
(This statement applicable only to South Africa)
Installation and General Instructions
General Use
1. In order to maintain high quality, do not operate
the oven when empty. The microwave energy will
reflect continuously throughout the oven if no food
or water is present to absorb energy.
This can lead to damage to the microwave oven
including arcing within the oven cavity.
2. If smoke is observed, press the Stop/Reset Pad
and leave door closed in order to stifle any flames.
Disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at
the fuse or circuit breaker panel.
3. The microwave oven is intended for heating food
and beverages. Drying of food or clothing and
heating of warming pads, slippers, sponges, damp
cloth and similar may lead to risk of injury, ignition
or fire.
4. Do not use recycled paper products, unless the
paper product is labelled as safe for microwave
oven use. Recycled paper products may contain
impurities which may cause sparks and/or fires
when used.
5. Do not use newspapers or paper bags for cooking.
6. Do not hit or strike control panel. Damage to
controls may occur.
7. POT HOLDERS may be needed as heat from food
is transferred to the cooking container and from
the container to the oven. The oven can be very
hot after removing the cooking container.
8. Do not store flammable materials next to, on top

of, or in the oven. It could be a fire hazard.
9. Do not cook food directly on ceramic plate unless
indicated in recipes. (Food should be placed in a
suitable cooking utensil.)
10. DO NOT use this oven to heat chemicals or other
nonfood products. DO NOT clean this oven with
any product that is labelled as containing corrosive
chemicals. The heating of corrosive chemicals in
this oven may cause microwave radiation leaks.
11. If the base of the oven is hot, allow to cool before
cleaning or placing in water.
12. When using the MICROWAVE + GRILL mode,
never place any aluminum or metal container
directly on the wire rack. Always insert a heat-
proof, grass plate or dish between the wire rack
and the aluminum container. This will prevent
sparking that may damage the oven.
13. It is recommended not to use the wire rack when
cooking in the MICROWAVE mode only.
14. During cooking, some steam will condense inside
and/or on the oven door. This is normal and safe.
Steam will disappear after the oven is cool down.
15. Do not leave the microwave unattended while
reheating or cooking food in disposable containers
made of plastic, paper or other combustible
materials, as these types of containers can ignite if
overheated.
Placement of the Oven
1. The oven must be placed on a flat, stable surface,
more than 85 cm above the floor. For correct
operation, the oven must have sufficient air flow.
Allow 25 cm of space on the top of the oven,
10 cm at the back, and 5 cm on both sides. If
one side of the oven is placed flush to wall, the
other side or top must not be blocked. Do not
remove feet.
(a) Do not block air vents. If they are blocked
during operation, the oven may be overheated
and damaged. When using any cloth over the
oven, the air intake and exhaust should not
be blocked. Do not place a cloth on top of the
unit during COMBINATION, STEAM, GRILL,
OVEN, and CRISPY GRILL cooking as the
top of the microwave gets very hot. Also allow
suffi cient space on back and both sides of the
oven.
(b) Do not place oven near a hot or damp surface
such as a gas stove, electric range or sink etc.
(c) Do not operate oven when room humidity is too
high.
2. This oven was manufactured for household use
only.
3. The appliance is freestanding type and shall not
be placed in a cabinet.
Food
1. Do not use your oven for home canning or the
heating of any closed jar. Pressure will build
up and the jar may explode. In addition, the
microwave oven cannot maintain the food at the
correct canning temperature. Improperly canned
food may spoil and be dangerous to consume.
2. Do not attempt to deep fat fry in your microwave
oven.
3. Do not boil eggs in their shell and whole hard-
boiled eggs (unless otherwise stated in Cooking
Guide section). Pressure will build up and the eggs
will explode.
4. Potatoes, apples, egg yolks, chicken wings, whole
squash and sausages are examples of foods
with nonporous skins. This type of food must be
pierced before cooking, to prevent bursting.
5. When heating liquids, e.g. soup. sauces and
beverages in your microwave oven, overheating
the liquid beyond boiling point can occur without
evidence of bubbling. This could result in a sudden
boil over the hot liquid. To prevent this possibility
the following steps should be taken:
(a) Avoid using straight-sided containers with
narrow necks.
(b) Do not overheat.
(c) Stir the liquid before placing the container in
the oven and again halfway through cooking
time.
(d) After heating, allow to stand in the oven for
a short time, stirring again before carefully
removing the container.
(e) Microwave heating of beverages can result in
delayed eruptive boiling, therefore care must
be taken when handling the container.
6. DO NOT USE A CONVENTIONAL MEAT
THERMOMETER IN THE MICROWAVE OVEN.
To check the degree of cooking of roasts and
poultry use a MICROWAVE THERMOMETER.
Alternatively, a conventional meat thermometer
may be used after the food is removed from the
oven. If undercooked, return meat or poultry to
the oven and cook for a few more minutes at
the recommended power level. It is important
to ensure that meat and poultry are thoroughly
cooked.
7. COOKING TIMES given in the cookbook are
APPROXIMATE. Factors that may affect cooking
time are preferred degree of moisture content,
starting temperature, altitude, volume, size, shape
of food and utensils used. As you become familiar
with the oven, you will be able to adjust for these
factors.
8. It is better to UNDERCOOK RATHER THAN
OVERCOOK foods. If food is undercooked, it
can always be returned to the oven for further
cooking. If food is overcooked, nothing can be
done. Always start with minimum cooking times
recommended.

Installation and General Instructions (continued)
9. Extreme care should be taken when cooking
popcorn in a microwave oven. Cook for minimum
time as recommended by manufacturer. Use
the directions suitable for the wattage of your
microwave oven. NEVER leave oven unattended
when popping popcorn.
10. When heating food in plastic or paper containers,
check the oven frequently due to the possibility of
ignition.
11. The contents of feeding bottles and baby food jars
are to be stirred or shaken and the temperature
is to be checked before consumption, in order to
avoid burns.
Microwaves and How They Work
Microwaves are a form of high frequency radio waves
similar to those used by a radio, including AM, FM
and CB. They are similar to a television where the
radio waves are converted to a picture on the screen.
However, microwaves are much shorter than radio
waves; approximately twelve centimetres wave length.
Electricity is converted into microwave energy by the
magnetron tube (which is the heart of the microwave
oven).
From the magnetron tube, microwave energy is
transmitted to the oven cavity. The microwaves are
converted to heat in the food. The microwaves enter
from the outside of the food and travel through the
food losing half of their power every two to three
centimetres. Continued cooking to the centre occurs
by conduction.
Although pacemakers used to be affected by
microwaves (as well as by other radio waves), they
are now shielded and are not bothered by these
interferences. This allows people with pacemakers
to sit calmly by their radio or television and cook with
microwave ovens.
When microwaves come in contact with a substance,
any one or CRISPY GRILL of three things may occur.
They can be:
1. REFLECTED
2. TRANSMITTED
3. ABSORBED
Refl ection:
Metal substances REFLECT microwave energy and
because there is no absorption, there is no heating.
This is why the oven interior is either stainless steel or
epoxy-coated steel. This ensures that the microwaves
are kept inside the cavity and evenly distributed
throughout the food with the help of the turntable.
Transmission:
Such substances as paper, glass and plastic
TRANSMIT microwave energy and do not become
hot except from food. Because these substances do
not refl ect or absorb microwave energy, they are ideal
materials for microwave cooking containers.
Absorption:
Food contains moisture and will ABSORB microwave
energy, which causes the moisture molecules within
the food to vibrate at an incredible rate (2,450,000,000
times per second). Friction, created by the vibration,
produces heat energy which is conducted throughout
the food.

Cookware and Utensils Guide
It is important to use the correct container when
cooking in a microwave oven. The following will help
you make the right selection.
How to Test a Container for Safe
Microwave Oven Use
TO TEST A CONTAINER FOR SAFE MICROWAVE
OVEN USE: Fill a 1-cup glass measure with cool
water and place it in the microwave oven alongside
the empty container to be tested; heat one (1) minute
at High. If the container is microwave ovensafe
(transparent to microwave energy), the container
should remain comfortably cool, the water in glass
measure should be hot. If the container is hot, it has
absorbed some microwave energy and should NOT be
used. This test cannot be used for plastic containers.
Paper Products and Freezer Wrap
Waxed paper, paper plates, cups and napkins should
not be used for heating or cooking food. Freezer wrap
should not be used as it is not heat resistant and
may melt. Paper towel, greaseproof paper and bake
paper may be safely used for short periods of time for
covering or lining.
Glass, Ceramic and China
Heat-Resistant glass cookware is invaluable in
microwave cooking. Many of these items are readily
available in most homes: glass jugs, mixing bowls, loaf
dishes, covered casseroles, oblong baking dishes, pie
plates and round or square cake dishes. Examples of
this type of cookware are Pyrex® and Corningware®.
Dinnerware can be used for microwave heating.
Many brands of dinnerware are microwave safe.
Check the care information for reference to microwave
use for dinnerware and serving pieces. If dinnerware
is marked ovenproof, it frequently is safe to use in
the microwave oven. However, to be sure, check by
conducting microwave dish test previously mentioned.
Several types of glassware and dinnerware are not
recommended for use in the microwave oven. Do not
use dishes with metallic trim or containers with metal
parts. Do not use cups or mugs with glued on handles,
as they may fall off with continued heating. Do not use
delicate glassware. Although the glassware may be
transparent to microwave energy the heat from the
food may cause the glassware to crack.
Plastic
Plastic dishes, cups and some freezer containers
should be used with care in a microwave oven.
Choose plastic containers carefully, as some plastic
containers may become soft, melt and may scorch.
The majority of plastic dishes, even those designed
for use in the microwave oven, are not suitable for
cooking foods with high fat or sugar content, or for
lengthy cooking times. Most microwave plastic dishes
should not be used for longer than 3 to 5 minutes
on High power. These dishes, although not suitable
for extended cooking, may be used successfully for
defrosting or for use on lower power levels.
Cooking Bags designed to withstand boiling, freezing,
or conventional heating are microwave safe. Prepare
bags according to manufacturer’s directions. When
cooking by microwave, DO NOT use wire twist-ties
to close bag. They can act as an antenna and cause
arcing (sparks).
DO NOT COOK IN PLASTIC FOOD STORAGE
BAGS.
Plastic Wrap such as GLAD WRAP® can be used
to cover dishes in most recipes. Over an extended
heating time, some disfi guration of the wrap may
occur. When removing plastic wrap “covers”, as well
as any glass lid, be careful to remove it away from you
to avoid steam burns.
Loosen plastic but let dish stand, covered.
Jars and Bottles
Jars and bottles can be used to warm food to serving
temperature, if the lid is removed fi rst. Cooking should
not be done in these containers since most are not
heat resistant and during extended heating times, heat
from food would cause cracking or breaking.
Metal
Metal cookware or utensils, or those with metallic
trim, should NOT be used in the microwave. Since
microwave energy is refl ected by metal, foods in
metal containers will not cook evenly. There is also a
possibility of “arcing”.
Although metal utensils should be avoided in
microwave cooking, some metal can be helpful when
used correctly.
Aluminum foil can be used safely, if certain guidelines
are followed, to prevent overcooking. Small pieces of
foil are used to shield areas such as chicken wings,
tips of roasts, or other thin parts that cook before
the rest of the recipe is fi nished. Make sure foil is
attached securely and doesn’t touch sides of oven,
otherwise arcing may occur. Foil lined containers,
either cardboard or plastic, should NOT be used in the
microwave oven as arcing could occur.
Metal twist-ties, either paper or plastic coated, should
NOT be used in the microwave oven. Frozen dinner
trays can be used in the microwave, if the container
is no deeper than 2 cm and is fi lled with food. Metal
skewers can not be used in microwave ovens as
arcing may occur. Wooden skewers are readily
available and give the same result.
Shells: Scalloped baking shells are best used during
reheating and for short periods of cooking time only.
Thermometers are available for use in microwave
ovens. DO NOT USE CONVENTIONAL MERCURY
TYPE CANDY OR MEAT THERMOMETERS in food
while cooking in the microwave oven.
Straw, Wicker and Wood
Straw and wicker baskets may be used in the
microwave oven for short periods of time to warm
rolls or bread. Large wooden utensils, such as bowls
or cutting boards should NOT be used for prolonged
heating as the microwave energy may cause the wood
to become dry and brittle.

To Cook Food Using Sensor Reheat
Considering IR sensor positioned on the upper head of the side wall, if it fails to detect the surface temperature of the foods or
liquids themselves, in that way the detected temperature will go contradict with the actual temperature. Therefore, we do not
recommend using straight-sided containers with narrow necks when reheating a spot of food or liquids, in that the side wall of
the container will obstruct the infrared rays to get through and lead to error detection. In order to achieve superb performance,
the following steps should be taken:
1. When reheating solid foods, please use open, flat container with food weight no less than 100 g.
2. When reheating liquids, avoid using straight-sided containers with narrow necks, and liquids under 200 ml.
IR sensor detects
the food temperature
rightly.
IR sensor may fails
to detect the food
temperature, in that the
side wall of the container
obstruct the infrared ray
given out by the food.
3. The default setting is 70 °C when plugging in. From the second time, the default setting will be changed to previously
setting if between 55~75 °C.
4. "
" will be displayed if food temperature measured is higher than selected temperature.
5. After reheating, stir then serve.
6. Please place the container at the center of the ceramic plate.
7. The plastic wrap should cover the food tightly, otherwise, the temperature of food may not be tested. If the plastic wrap is
overlapped, make sure the overlapped area is placed downwards.

To Use Turbo Defrost
Notes:
1. Turbo Defrost can be used to defrost many cuts of meat, poultry and fish by weight. The oven will determine
the defrosting time and power levels. Once the oven is programmed, the defrosting time will appear in the
display. For best results the minimum recommended weight is 0.2 kg.
2. BONE-IN ROASTS, such as a Beef Rib Roast have a smaller muscle than a boneless roast of the same
weight.
Therefore, for bone-in roasts weighing over 2 kg reduce weight by 0.5 kg. For bone-in roasts weighing less
than 2 kg, reduce weight by 0.25 kg.
3. Turn over the food, remove defrosted food and shield thin ends/fat bones of roast with foil when buzzer rings
in the middle of cooking.

2. Freeze meats, poultry and fi sh in packages with only 1 or 2 layers of food. To aid in separating layers, place two pieces of
wax paper between them.
3. REMOVE ALL AIR and seal securely.
4. LABEL package with type and cut of meat, date and weight.
5. Defrosting times given in the charts are for thoroughly frozen foods (i.e. at least 24 hours in freezer maintained at -18 °C or
lower).
Defrosting Technique:
1. Remove from wrapper and set on a defrosting rack in a dish on fl at table.
2. On Turbo Defrost, the oven will beep during the defrosting time. At “beep”, turn over all meat, poultry, fi sh and shellfi sh.
Break apart stewing meat, chicken pieces and minced meat. Separate chops and hamburger patties.Shield thin ends of
roasts, poultry legs and wings, fat or bones with foil.
3. Throughout the defrosting time, remove any defrosted portions of mince or cubed meat, etc.
4. After defrosting, large roasts may still be icy in the centre. Let stand, 15 to 30 minutes, in refrigerator to complete

Before Requesting Service
ALL THESE THINGS ARE NORMAL:
The oven causes
interference with my TV.
Some radio, TV, Wi-Fi, cordless telephone, baby monitor, blue tooth or
other wireless equipment interference might occur when you cook with the
microwave oven. This interference is similar to the interference caused by
small appliances such as mixers, vacuums, blow dryers, etc. It does not
indicate a problem with your oven.
Steam accumulates on the oven
door and warm air comes from the
oven vents.
During cooking, steam and warm air are given off from the food. Most of the
steam and warm air are removed from the oven by the air which circulates
in the oven cavity. However, some steam will condense on cooler surfaces
such as inside and/or on the oven door. This is normal and safe. Steam will
disappear after the oven is cool down.
I accidentally operate my
microwave oven without any food
in it.
Operating the oven empty for a short time will not damage the oven.
However, we do not recommend this to be done.
There are humming and clicking
noises from my oven when I cook
by Combination.
These noise occur as the oven automatically switch the Grill. This is
normal.
The oven has an odour and
generates smoke when using
Combination, Oven, Crispy Grill
and Grill function.
It is essential that your oven is wiped out regularly particularly after cooking
by Combination, Oven, Crispy Grill and Grill function. Any fat and grease that
builds up on the roof and walls of the oven will begin to smoke if not cleaned.
Some smoke will be given off
from the cavity when using grill,
Combination, Oven, Crispy Grill
and Grill for the first time.
It caused by the excessive oil in the cavity and oil used for rust protection
volatilizing.

Care of your Microwave Oven
Turn the oven off and remove the power plug from the wall socket before cleaning.
If steam accumulates
inside or around the
outside of the oven
door, wipe with a soft
cloth. This may occur
when the microwave
oven is operated under
high humidity conditions
and in no way indicates
malfunction of the unit.
Wire Rack
Grill Tray
Notes:
1. When using the Grill, Crispy Grill, Oven or Combination mode, some foods may inevitably splatter grease on
to the oven walls. If the oven is not cleaned, occasionally it may start to "smoke" during use. These marks will be
more difficult to clean later.
2. After Grill, Crispy Grill, Oven or Combination cooking, the ceiling and walls of the oven should be cleaned
with a soft cloth squeezed in soapy water. Particular care should be taken to keep the window area clean
particularly after cooking by Grill, Combination. Stubborn spots inside the oven can be removed by using a
small amount of microwave oven cleaner sprayed onto a soft damp cloth. Wipe onto problem spots, leave for
recommended time and then wipe off. This method can not be used to clean the oven door.
DO NOT SPRAY DIRECTLY INSIDE THE OVEN.
A steam cleaner is not to be used for cleaning.
3. Failure to maintain the oven in a clean condition could lead to deterioration of the surface that could
adversely affect the life of the appliance and possibly result in a hazardous situation.
4. When it becomes necessary to replace the oven light, please consult the service center specified by
Panasonic.
The outside oven surfaces should be cleaned
with a damp cloth. To prevent damage to the
operating parts inside the oven, water should
not be allowed to seep into the ventilation
openings.
Always clean the Flat Table
after cooling down with a mild
detergent and wipe to dry.
Keep the inside of the oven
clean. When food splatters or
spilled liquids adhere to oven
walls, wipe with a damp cloth.
Mild detergent may be used if the
oven gets very dirty. The use of
harsh detergent or abrasives is
not recommended.
Do not allow the Control Panel to
become wet. Clean with a soft,
damp cloth. Do not use detergents,
abrasives or spray-on cleaners
on the Control Panel. When
cleaning the Control Panel, leave
oven door open to prevent oven
from accidentally turning on. After
cleaning press Stop/Reset pad to
clear display window.
Clean the upper
heater after it is
completely cold.
Wipe with a soft and
damp cloth carefully
to avoid breaking the
heater and hurting
your fingers by the
broken heater.

Microwave Recipe Techniques
Microwaves penetrate the surface of the food to a
depth of about two to three centimetres and then
the heat is gradually conducted in a random pattern.
Some parts of food matter cook faster than others.
Special microwave techniques are used to promote
fast and even cooking. Some of these techniques
are similar to those used in conventional cooking, but
because microwaves produce heat very quickly these
following techniques are extremely important. It’s a
must for you to be familiar with the following tips.
Food Characteristics
Size and Quantity
Small portions cook faster than large portions. As
you increase the quantity of food you put into the
microwave oven, you must also increase your cooking
time. The microwave oven has the same power
regardless of quantity; thus the power is divided
between more items and so it takes longer to cook.
As a general guide, if you double the quantity of food
suggested in the recipe, add half the time suggested
again.
Liquid Content
Low moisture foods take a shorter time to cook than
foods with a lot of moisture.
Shape
Uniform sizes cook more evenly. To compensate
for irregular shapes, place thin pieces towards the
centre of the dish and thicker pieces towards the
outer edge of the dish.
Bone and Fat
Bones conduct heat and cause the meat next to
them to be heated more quickly. Large amounts of
fat absorb microwave energy and the meat next to
these areas may overcook.
Starting Temperature
Food which has been sitting at room temperature
takes less time to cook than refrigerated or frozen
food.
Density and Composition
Porous, airy foods (cakes and breads) take less
time to cook than heavy compacted foods (meat and
vegetables). Recipes high in fat and sugar content
cook more quickly.
Key to Symbols Used in Recipes
Microwave
Steam
Grill
Crispy grill
Oven
Techniques for Preparation
Timing
A range of cooking times is given in each recipe for
two reasons. First, to allow for the uncontrollable
differences in food shapes, starting temperatures and
personal preferences. Secondly, these allow for the
differences in electrical voltage input which changes
during peak load periods. Always remember that it
is easier to add time to undercooked food. Once the
food is overcooked, nothing can be done. For each
recipe, an approximate cooking time is given.
Stirring
Stirring is often necessary during microwave cooking.
We have noted when stirring is helpful in the recipes.
Always bring the outside edges towards the centre
and the centre portions to the outside.
Rearranging or Turning
Some foods should be turned in the container during
cooking. For example, because of the different
thicknesses in the breast and back sections of
poultry, it is a good idea to turn poultry over once to
ensure more even cooking.
Rearranging or turning over uneven shaped food in
the dish should be done as suggested to ensure a
satisfactory result. Rearrange small items such as
chicken pieces, prawns, hamburger patties, steak or
chops. Rearrange pieces from the centre to the edge
of the dish.
Cooking in Layers
This microwave oven is not designed to cook more
than 1 layer of food. Cooking in 2 layers may not
always be successful, it takes longer and may be
uneven. You can successfully reheat two dinner
plates of food at one time but remember to increase
the reheating time and use a microwave warming
rack.
Piercing of Foods
Pierce the skin or membrane of foods such as whole
potatoes when cooked whole in the microwave oven.
This allows steam to escape. If the skin has not been
pierced, food may burst.
Cured Meats
Cured meats may overcook in some areas due to
the high concentration of salts used in the curing
process. So take care when cooking different brands
of bacon as cooking times may vary slightly.
Soups
Use a bowl and stir before heating and at least
once through reheat time and again at the end.

Microwave Recipe Techniques
Techniques for Preparation
Covering
Covering food minimizes the microwave cooking
time.
Because microwave cooking is done with time and
not direct heat, the rate of evaporation cannot be
easily controlled. However, this can be corrected by
using different materials to cover dishes. Plastic wrap
is the best substitute for a lid as it creates a tighter
seal and so it retains more heat and steam. Wax
paper and paper towels hold the heat in but not the
steam. These materials also prevent splattering. Use
a paper towel, wax paper or no cover when steam is
not needed for tenderising.
Browning
Meats and poultry, when cooked longer than 10 to
15 minutes, will brown from their own fat. Foods
cooked for shorter periods of time can be aided with
the help of a browning sauce, worcestershire sauce
or soy sauce. Simply brush one of these sauces over
meat or poultry before cooking. Baked goods do not
need long cooking time and therefore, do not brown.
When cakes or cupcakes are iced, no one will notice
the visual difference. For cakes or cupcakes, brown
sugar can be used in the recipe in place of caster
sugar or the surface can be sprinkled with dark
spices before baking.
Standing Time
The moisture molecules continue to vibrate in
the food when the microwave oven has turned
itself off. After all, the molecules were vibrating at
2,450,000,000 times per second during cooking. So
cooking continues even after the food is no longer
being exposed to the microwaves whether in or
outside your microwave oven.
Standing time refers to the time it takes (after the
microwave time is completed) to allow the interior of
the food to fi nish cooking.
The amount of standing time varies with the size
and density of the food. In meat cookery, the internal
temperature will rise between 5 °C and 10 °C if
allowed to stand covered for ten to fi fteen minutes.
Casserole and vegetables need shorter standing
time, but this time is necessary to allow foods to
complete cooking in the centre without overcooking
on the edges.
The power level used in microwave cooking also
determines the standing time. For example, when
using a lower power level the standing time is shorter
because of a lower concentration of heat in the food.
Foods should always be kept covered while standing
in order to retain the heat. If a longer standing time is
required (while you cook another food to serve with
the fi rst, for instance), cover with aluminum foil.
Converting Your Favourite Conventional
Recipes for Microwave Cooking
When adapting conventional recipes for microwave
cooking, time are reduced considerably.
For example, a chicken which takes 1 hour to cook
in a moderate oven will take 15 to 20 minutes on 800
W in your microwave oven.
Use similar microwave recipes to help you adapt
conventional recipes. Remember, it is always best to
undercook a recipe and then add an extra minute or
two to fi nish it off.
Here are some other tips that may help:
• Reduce liquids in a conventional recipe by one half
to two thirds, e.g. 1 cup (250 ml) should be reduced
to 1⁄2 cup (125 ml).
• Add more thickening such as fl our or cornfl our to
sauces and gravies if you do not reduce the liquid.
• Reduce seasonings slightly in a recipe where
ingredients do not have time to simmer by
microwave.
• Do not salt meats, poultry or vegetables before
cooking; otherwise, they will toughen and dry out.
• If one ingredient takes longer to cook than the
others, pre-cook it in the microwave oven fi rst.
Onion, celery and potato are examples.
• When cooking meat or vegetables, omit any oil or
fat that would have been used in a conventional
recipe for browning.
• Reduce leavening agents for cakes by one quarter
and increase liquids by one quarter.
• Biscuits require a stiff dough. Increase fl our by
about 20 percent. Substitute brown sugar for white
sugar and use biscuit recipes that have dark spices
or require icing. Because of the short cooking time,
biscuits don’t have time to brown. Chill dough for
half an hour before baking. This produces a crisper
biscuit. Bake biscuits on a glass tray lined with
greaseproof paper.
• Since microwaves penetrate foods about two
centimetres from the top, bottom and sides,
mixtures in round shapes and rings cook more
evenly. Corners receive more energy and may
overcook.
• Items with a lot of water, such as rice and pasta,
cook in about the same time as they would on
a conventional stove. (Refer to Rice and Pasta
chapter.)
Select recipes that convert easily to microwave
cooking such as casserole, stews, baked chicken,
fi sh and vegetable dishes. The results from foods
such as grilled meats, cooked souffl es or two-crust
pies could be less than satisfactory. Never attempt to
deep fry in your microwave oven.

Microwave Recipe Techniques
Menu Planning for Microwave Cooking
How to Keep Everything Hot at The Same Time
Plan your meals so that the food will not all need
last minute cooking or attention at the same time.
The special features of microwave cookery make
it easy to serve meals with everything piping hot.
Cooking of some foods may be interrupted while you
start others, without harming the nutritional value or
fl avour of either.
A recipe which requires standing time can be
microwaved fi rst and another food cooked while it
stands. Dishes prepared in advance can be reheated
briefl y before serving.
It does take some experience and time to cook with
confi dence. Microwaves are fast so you will have to
do some experimenting. You might fi nd you will use
your conventional range in conjunction with your
microwave oven. For example, while cooking the
roast in the microwave oven, you can be cooking the
vegetables and gravy on the range top. This can also
be done the other way around. Prepare your meals
as follows.
1. Firstly, cook the most dense item (roast or
casserole). Drain and retain meat juice from joints
then cover with foil.
2. Cook the potatoes, rice or pasta.
3. Cover with foil for standing.
4. Cook greens and other vegetables.
5. Cover with foil for standing.
6. Cook the gravy with the retained meat juices,
stock and thickening.
7. Carve the roast and serve the vegetables and
gravy.
While you are learning to plan meals, you may get a
bit behind time. Don’t worry. Dinner servings may be
suitably reheated on 800 W, for 1 to 2 minutes per
serving.
If you prefer not to use foil, cover food with saucepan
lids. A metal lid will retain the heat for at least 15
minutes.
Meanwhile, how can you cook all the vegetables
at the same time? Simply place potatoes and
pumpkin in one dish and less dense vegetables
such as broccoli, cabbage, caulifl ower, beans and
peas in another. Sprinkle greens with water. Cover
with a lid or plastic wrap. Cook on 1000 W for
approximately 10 to 15 minutes for a serving for four
people. Remember, if you increase the quantity of
vegetables, increase the cooking time. Fresh and
frozen vegetables can be mixed on a vegetable
platter, but remember the latter are not as dense as
fresh vegetables, as they have been blanched before
freezing.
If vegetables are cut to a similar size, they can be
cooked in separate ramekins or small dishes at the
same time.
Handy Hints and Tips
• To blanch (1 cup) nuts, place in a pie plate. Cover
with hot tap water and heat on 1000 W for 2 to
3 minutes. Rinse in cold water and rub between
sheets of paper towel to remove skins.
• To toast coconut, place half a cup on a paper towel,
and cook on 1000 W for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring
occasionally.
• To make buttered breadcrumbs, combine 1 cup
breadcrumbs and 2 tablespoon butter and heat on
1000 W for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• When heating 100 g baby food, select 1000 W for
15 to 30 seconds, depending on the amount of
food or liquid and the starting temperature of it. Test
temperature before serving or further heating.
• For an added touch at dinner parties, steam your
own hand towels. Saturate in cold water, wring
and place on a plate. Heat on 1000 W for 1 to 2
minutes.
• To soften cream cheese or butter, place in oven on
300 W for ½ to 1 minutes per ½ cup.
• Refrigerated cheese (250 g) can be heated to room
temperature on 600 W for ½ to 1 minute, depending
on size.
• When having a barbecue, partially cook food in
the microwave, season and fi nish cooking on the
barbecue.
• To melt chocolate, place 100 g broken chocolate
in a 4 cup glass jug and heat on 600 W for 2 to 3
minutes. As chocolate holds its shape after heating,
stir and stand before adding extra time to cooking.
• To remove oven odours, combine ½ teaspoon
vanilla essence with 1 cup water in a small bowl
and heat on 1000 W 4 to 5 minutes. Wipe oven
interior with a damp cloth.
• To toast 1 cup almonds place onto a plate and heat
on 1000 W for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring every minute.
• To dry herbs, arrange ½ cup of leaves evenly on
paper towel. Place a mug of water into the oven
next to the herbs and cook on 1000 W for 1 to 3
minutes, or until dry and crumbly. Check herbs
frequently as timing may vary with different herbs.
Please note that herbs dry and crumble on standing
outside the microwave oven.
• To soften dried fruit, place 1 cup of dried fruit into
a small bowl. Add 2 tablespoon of water, cover
with plastic wrap and cook on 1000 W for 2 to 3
minutes.
• To skin tomatoes, place 1 cup of hot tap water in
a 2 to 3 cup jug or bowl and heat on 1000 W for
1½ minutes or until boiling. Add 1 tomato and heat
for a further 20 to 30 seconds, remove and repeat
procedure with remaining tomatoes. The skin will
be loosened and easily removed.
• To dry fresh breadcrumbs (1 cup), spread on the
base of a plate and heat on 1000 W for 2 to 3
minutes, stirring twice during heating.

Poultry
Cooking
Season as desired, but salt after cooking. Browning
sauce (e.g. soy, Worcestershire) mixed with equal
parts of butter will enhance the appearance.
Poultry may be stuffed or unstuffed. Tie legs together
with cotton string. Place on microwave rack set in
a rectangular dish. Place poultry breast-side down:
turn over halfway through cooking. Cover with wax
paper to prevent splattering.
If the poultry is not cooked enough return it to the
oven and cook a few more minutes
DO NOT USE A CONVENTIONAL MEAT
THERMOMETER IN THE MICROWAVE OVEN.
Let stand, covered with foil, 10 to 15 minutes after
cooking. Standing time allows the temperature
to equalise throughout the food and fi nishes the
cooking process.
If a large amount of juice accumulates in the bottom
of the baking dish occasionally drain it. If desired,
reserve for making gravy.
Less-tender birds should be cooked in liquid such as
soup or broth. Use ¼ cup per 500 g of poultry. Use
an oven cooking bag or covered casserole. Select
a covered casserole dish deep enough so that bird
does not touch the lid.
Directions for Cooking Whole Poultry by Microwave
After cooking, check the internal temperature of
the bird with a microwave or conventional meat
thermometer, inserted into the thigh muscle. Check
temperature in both muscles. The thermometer
should not touch bone. If it does, the reading could
be inaccurate. A thermometer cannot be accurately
inserted into a small bird. To check desired cooking
of a small bird, juices should be clear and the
drumsticks should readily move up and down.
During cooking it may be necessary to shield legs,
wings and the breast bone to prevent overcooking.
Wooden toothpicks can be used to hold foil in place.
If an oven cooking bag is used, prepare according
to package directions. Do not use wire twist-ties
to close bag. Use only nylon tie, a piece of cotton
string, or a strip cut from the open end of the bag.
Make six 2 cm slits in top of bag.

Poultry
Wash poultry and pat dry. Season poultry as desired.
Whole poultry may be roasted stuffed or unstuffed.
Whole Roasting Chickens (1.0 kg to 2.8 kg): Place
chicken on Wire Rack set on a heat proof and
microwave safe dish. Shield drumsticks with a strip
of foil for the fi rst 30 minutes of cooking. (Foil should
not touch rack or oven walls, as arcing may occur.)
Whole Duck (1.5 kg to 2.5 kg): Pierce skin at 2 cm
intervals with a fork to allow fat to drain from duck.
Place duck on Wire Rack set on on a heat proof and
microwave safe dish. Drain juices from dish once
during cooking.
Directions for Cooking Poultry by Combination
Whole Turkey (2 kg to 6 kg): Place turkey on Wire
Rack set on a heat proof and microwave safe dish.
Halfway through cooking, shield tops of drumsticks
with a strip of foil. (Foil should not touch oven walls,
as arcing may occur.) Drain juice from dish once
during cooking.
After cooking allow to stand, covered, for 10 minutes.
This stand time allows for easier carving and fi nishes
cooking. During stand time test for desired cooking.
Small poultry is cooked when juices run clear and the
drumsticks readily move up and down. Large poultry
should be checked with a meat thermometer inserted
in both thigh joints. If thermometer touches bone, the
reading may be inaccurate.
DO NOT USE A CONVENTIONAL OR MICROWAVE
THERMOMETER IN THE OVEN WHEN COOKING
BY COMBINATION. If poultry is undercooked, cook
a few more minutes.
Arrange pieces skin-side up, and evenly spread in a
shallow dish.

Main Fare Meats
For best results, select roasts that are uniform in
shape.
Place meat on a microwave suitable rack in a
rectangular dish. Beef rib roast should be placed cut-
side down. Other bone-in roasts should be placed
fat-side down. Boneless roasts should be placed fat-
side up. Halfway through cooking turn roasts.
Meats can be shielded at the beginning of cooking or
halfway through cooking. If you wish to shield at the
beginning of cooking, remove foil halfway through
the cooking time. Beef and pork rib roasts should be
shielded by the bones. Foil should extend about
5 cm down from bones.
The shank, thin ends of boneless roasts should also
be shielded.
Loosely cover baking dish with wax paper or paper
towel to prevent splatter. If a large amount of
juice accumulates in the bottom of the dish, drain
occasionally. If desired, reserve for making gravy.
Directions for Cooking Tender Cuts of Meat by Microwave
After heating, check temperature using a meat
thermometer. The thermometer should not touch
bone or fat. If it does, the reading could be
inaccurate. Lower temperatures are found in the
centre of the roast and in the muscle close to a
large bone, such as a pork loin centre rib roast. If
the temperatures are low, return meat to the oven
and cook a few more minutes. DO NOT USE A
CONVENTIONAL MEAT THERMOMETER IN THE
MICROWAVE OVEN. Let stand, covered with foil,
10 to 15 minutes. During standing time the internal
temperature equalises and the temperature rises
5 °C to 10 °C
Half hams should be shielded by wrapping an
8 cm wide strip of foil around the large end of the
ham. Secure to the body of the ham with wooden
toothpicks. Fold 3 cm over cut surface. For shank
ham halves, shield shank bone by cupping it with foil.
One third of the way through cooking, remove ham
from oven and cut off skin. Turn fat-side up and re
shield edges. If desired, glaze last 10 to 20 minutes
of cooking.
Canned hams should be shielded on the top
cut-edge with a 3 cm strip of foil. Wrap strip of foil
around ham and secure to body of ham with wooden
toothpicks. Fold 2 cm over cut surface. If desired,
glaze last 10 to 20 minutes of cooking.

Main Fare Meats
Less-tender cuts of meat such as pot roasts should
be cooked in liquid. Use ½ to 1 cup of soup, broth,
etc per 500 g of meat. Use an oven cooking bag or
covered casserole when cooking less-tender cuts of
meat. Select a covered casserole deep enough so
that the meat does not touch the lid.
Directions for Cooking Less-Tender Cuts of Meat by Microwave
If an oven cooking bag is used, prepare the bag
according to package directions. Do not use wire
or metal twist-ties. Use the nylon tie provided,
otherwise, use a piece of cotton string or a strip cut
from the open end of the bag. Make six 2 cm slits in
top of bag to allow steam to escape.
Season roast as desired, but add salt after cooking.
Salt can be used for cooking Pork crackling.
Beef, Pork and Lamb Roasts: Place fat-side down
on Wire Rack with a heat proof and microwave safe
dish underneath to catch drips. Place pork rib roasts,
rib tips down on Wire Rack. Shield thin ends, cut
edges and bony areas to prevent overcooking. To
shield, place a thin strip of foil over top cut edges of
roast. Cover tapered thinner section of roast with a
small square of foil. (Foil should not touch sides of
the oven, as arcing may occur.) Remove foil halfway
through cooking time. Always turn meats over
halfway through cooking.
Canned Ham (1.5 kg to 2.5 kg): Place on Wire Rack
set on a heat proof and microwave safe dish. Shield
top cut edge with a 4 cm wide strip of foil. Fold foil
over top cut edge and down the sides. (Foil should
not touch oven sides, as arcing may occur.)
Directions for Cooking Meats by Combination
Pot Roast (1.2 kg to 1.75 kg): Place meat,
vegetables and seasonings in large oven proof
casserole dish. Cover with a lid. If desired, the
pot roast may be cooked in an oven cooking bag.
Prepare the oven cooking bag according to package
directions. Do not use wire or metal twist-ties. Use
the nylon ties provided, or use a piece of cotton
string or a strip cut from the oven bag. Place bag in
oven proof casserole dish. Place dish on fl at table.
Always turn meats over halfway through cooking.
As with Microwave cooking, roasts cooked by
Combination will continue to cook during the
stand time. During stand time check the internal
temperature of the roast using a Microwave or
conventional thermometer. The thermometer should
not touch bone or fat. If it does, the reading could
be inaccurate. If the temperatures are lower than
desired, return the roast to the oven and cook a few
more minutes.
DO NOT USE A MICROWAVE OR CONVENTIONAL
MEAT THERMOMETER IN THE OVEN WHEN
COOKING BY COMBINATION.
Stand 10 to 15 minutes before carving.
