Microwave Cooking & Recipes

Asians are difficult to convince. All are no different. Years of demonstrating microware techniques to us has reinforced the truth of a personal maxim: 'Hearing is knowing, demonstrating is believing, but tasting - now that is convincing!'

Abandon the wok? Never! scoffed the doubting tai-tais. What about wok aroma? Closed door cooking chases away all the fragrance of food. Have you heard the latest radiation story.............

So I took them through the process, deliberately choosing the most traditional Asian recipes - grilled pandan chicken, Indonesian beef packets, Szechwan style prawns and a host of Chinese New Year dishes, mother's home cooked recipes, restaurant favorites.......As the online recipes progressed, we even cooked Chung (rice dumplings) in the microwave oven.

Be cool. All the cooking is done in the microwave oven cavity. A microwave oven contains all the humidity, spray and heat. Nothing escapes into the kitchen. you are cool, your kitchen is clean.

Be organized. There is really no mystery. All it requires is a system in the preparation of ingredients. Each recipe in this Asian-Recipes.com lists ingredients in groups. You are taken step by step through preparation and cooking.

Be adventurous. You'll be a great modern chef skilled in the art of traditional Asians cooking. Put the microware oven to full use. It's perfect for the braising of traditional recipes, sensational for double-boiled foods.

Be innovative. Pamper your taste buds, add or decrease herbs, or other ingredients as you become more familiar with recipes. Experiment with new flavors and ingredients. A comprehensive glossary and guide to buying and preparing ingredients is given in this Asians-recipes site.

Stay traditional! Herbal soups are included. Cook these soups in your microwave oven for those who believe they can only be cooked the traditional way. No one will be the wiser.

Be healthier. Microwave cooking means less oil, flavors and essential vitamin and salts are sealed in, maintaining the richness of meats and the original color of vegetables. Seafood remain firm and intact.

"Sek fun" - (eating food in Cantonese) Happy eating !.
