Auto Reheat

Pre-cooked foods are reheated automatically by setting the food’s serving. You need not select power level or reheating time. The foods should be at refrigerator or room temperature. Use suitable sized dish and cover with a lid or microwave safe plastic. Stir after reheating.

Note: When reheating items such as soups, stews, and casseroles, it is recommended that they are stirred at half of reheating time and at completion of reheating.

Vegetables

Suitable for cooking all types of leaf, green and soft varieties, including broccoli, squash, cauliflower, cabbage, asparagus, beans, celery, zucchini, spinach, capsicum or a mixture of these. All vegetables should be trimmed or prepared and cut into even size pieces. Add 1 tablespoon to 1/4 cup water if vegetables appear slightly dehydrated. Add water if you prefer a softer cooked texture. Place in a suitable size dish. Butter, herbs etc. may be added before heating, but do not add salt until serving. Cover with plastic wrap or a well fitting lid. At the completion of heating, stir larger quantities of vegetables. Let stand, covered, for 2 to 3 minutes.

Potatoes

At the end of the cooking time, stir potatoes and let stand, covered, for 2 to 3 minutes.

Steam Fish

Suitable for cooking whole fish and fish fillets. Select fish suitable for microwave cooking and place in a single layer in a shallow dish, with skin-side down. Add butter, spices, herbs, or lemon juice to flavor. Overlap thin edges of fillets to prevent overcooking. If stuffing whole fish with seasoning, cooking time may need to be extended. Shield the eye and tail area of whole fish with small amounts of aluminum foil to prevent overcooking. Cover dish securely with plastic wrap or fitted lid. Allow large amounts of fish to stand for 3 to 5 minutes after cooking before serving. (thickness of fish should not be more than 3 cm)
