You do not find any indications for the
amount of food you wish to cook.
The food has become too dry.
After the programme has ended the food is
still not defrosted, heated or cooked.
After the cooking programme has ended,
the food is overcooked at the edges and
not enough in the middle.
Do as you would with a similar food. Extend
or reduce the cooking time according to
the following rule of thumb: double the
amount = nearly double the time/half the
amount = half the time.
Set a shorter cooking time or select a
lower microwave power.
Set a longer cooking time or select a
higher microwave level. Large amounts
of food need longer times.
Select a lower power and a longer time.
Stir the liquids (e.g. soup) from time to
time.
