    hi
    microwave oven is used for boiling. as far as i know u cant cook completley the whole dish in microwave. u can just boil beans or something else and prepare the rest on stovetop....... but i personally dont recommend microwaves........they say that its not advisable to cook in microwaves.. the waves emmitted may lead to a cancer they say....i read that somewhere and so many people told me......if u have time its good that u prepare on stove.

    Hello poongodi

    U can make a lot of stuff in microwave.
    Like Pulao, rice, pasta, so many indian vegetables......
    All u have to do is just find some indian microwave recipes.
    but I personally it use for heating food, preparing eggs, roasting papads ,
    Well the amount of electricity consumed is more..... so preparing food on
    stove os a better option.


    Regards,
    Simi

    hi,
    Even i prepare lot of items earlier in Microwave, but now using it only for reheating and in case of urgency...
    i used to prepare complete vegetable dish in microwaver itself, like beans, beetroot, carrot, halwa, pickle, breaking jaggery. frying for sambar and rasam powder... After reading about the article that it is not good for health. i stopped totally..

    love..
    lakshmi.

    I use microwave for boiling milk,making coffee,steaming vegetables before making curries etc.Also dry frying stuff.
    Extremely useful that it has become so indispensable for me now.
