Microwave fun!!!

Microwave is one boon for homemakers. Well besides the fact that u can use microwave for reheating, U can also use it to make delicious curries. We usually see ladies here in the US cooking alternate days due to their busy schedules...But with a microwave, u can get hot fresh instant food for work:)
  • Use the Microwave cooker for rice...it takes 20 minutes.
  • Microwave cooker also comes with a basket for steaming vegetables.
  • U can make Potato fry in Microwave without using much of oil...Infact just a tbsp of oil.
  • Recipe: Peel and cut the Potatoes into cubes. Take a Microwave bowl (A glass bowl not Plastic), add the potato cubes, a tbsp of oil, salt and pepper. Mix it well. Microwave it for 5-10 min depending on the quantity and power of ur Microwave. Crispy Potato fry is ready.
  • U can use the same method for all the other frys like tindora, okra, or eggplant. If u want anything softer, then just cook them with a lid. They will not even consme half the oil use to fry in a frying pan..Do try n let me know...

I make a lot of variety this way...ofcourse, only when it is urgent. It is not advisable to use microwave on a regular basis.
