9.3Using the browning plate

Normally when cooking food, such as pizzas or pies, on a grill or in a microwave oven, the dough or pastry becomes soggy. This can be avoided by using a browning plate. As a high temperature is reached quickly on the bottom of the browning plate, the crust turns crisp and brown.

The browning plate can also be used for bacon, eggs, sausages, etc.

VERY IMPORTANT NOTES:

￿Use oven gloves at all times as the browning plate will become very hot.

￿Never place the browning plate in the oven without the glass plate.

￿Do not place any recipients on the browning plate that are not heat-

resistant (plastic bowls for example). How to cook with the browning plate:

1.Preheat the browning plate by selecting the Microwave and Grill function for 3 to 5 minutes with a 600 W microwaves power level.

2.Brush the browning plate with oil in order to brown the food nicely.

3.Place the fresh or frozen food directly on the browning plate.

4.Place the browning plate on the glass turntable in the microwave oven.

5.Select the Microwaves and Grill function and the cooking time as described below.
