The only nuke I encountered that had such a wacko UI that I couldn't
even use it without the destructions was an Asda. I avoid them.
Daewoo has not been a good UI experience either, but at least usable
after some experimenting.
Mine is a Daewoo two knob job. Cost £39.99 3.5 years ago - still going
strong.
Yup
All I ever use mine for is heating up pre-cooked stuff and making
"baked" potatoes
Any other "cooking" returns unsatisfactory results IMHO
Blimey.
Poppadums. 1 minute full power, Perfect.
Rice. Simmer for 12 minutres at 2:1 eater to rice ratio by volume. Perfect
Baked potato. 3 minutes in microwave then 10 minutes in AGA oven. Perfect.
Ditto sausages.
Scrambled eggs. About 5 mins full power pause to stir half way.
Bacon. Full power 3 minutes
Almost any veg: teaspoon of water, cover with cling film 10 minutes full
power.
Boiled eggs: use microwave egg boiler. Full power 5.7 minutes
Pork scratchings - remove half baked pork rind and nuke for 5 minutes
full power. better than any oven.
Steamed puddings. 5 minutes full power.
In short anything steamed or with water in it that you dont want a brown
outside in is perfect, and if you do want a brown outside bung it in a
very hot oven afterwards for a bit.
I've even use it to emergency cook oven roasts that have not quite done
in the oven
KISS
