I started baking in my Microwave without knowing the Abc's of baking.I've searched frantically for topics relating to these in many sites and blogs,but there were only a few which answered my questions to the point.So,when DK asked me to share my two cents on her blog,I was more than happy.
I am not an expert though.I have been baking in my Microwave for sometime now and I have tried to answer the queries in whatever way I can!!I have an IFB Microwave Oven with Convection and Grill and all baking I do is done in that.
Hop on to her blog to see my guest post,Part 1,on Baking in Microwave Convection Oven.Please leave your comments and suggestions and if you have any questions,shoot..:)

ReplyDeleteHI DIVYA
ReplyDeleteI AM A BIG FAN OF UR BLOG.EVEN I HAVE IFB MICROWAVE WITH GRILL AND CONVECTION.I HAVE BAKED CAKES MANY TIMES AND THEY HAVE TURNED OUT NICE BUT YESTERDAY I MADE UR CHOCO WALNUT COOKIES FROM UR BLOG BUT THEY CAME OUT VERY HARD ALTHOUGH THE THE TASTE WAS VERY GOOD .FOLLOWED UR INSTRUCTIONS.WHAT WENT WRONG?
Great post there DK, I just left comment. I even make Butter chicken in the Microwave sometimes, love MW!:)
ReplyDeleteHi Sudha,
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the sweet words.Regarding the cookies,I am not sure why they came out hard,that recipe is usually a fool proof one.reasons why it turned out hard could be,a)if the dough was kneaded more than necessary,or b)if the fat content is low/not enough.I hope you try it out again and get good results!!
Nice post Divya I am glad to know you too use microwave with convection. I love your baking recipes.
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious Divya..
ReplyDeleteNice post Divya :)..I also used to bake every thing in my MW+CON oven...now I have a cooking range, but still I use the MW oven where the recipe asks for a low temp below 160 degree....Love baking in my MW:)

Hi Divya,
ReplyDeleteI have purchased the same IFB microwave convection model. And I am going to cook a cake on Wednesday on my first anniversary..:). I have a question from you: There is an option "cake" in the menu. So do I need to select only that or need to set time as 30-40 mins and turn on microwave+convection option?
I love reading through your post, I wanted to leave a little comment to support you and wish you a good continuation. Wishing you the best of luck for all your blogging efforts.
