MICROWAVE OVEN
A Microwave Oven is a kitchen appliance that uses electromagnetic radiation, which penetrates food, to cause internal heat and cook it from inside out. Micro means small or electro- magnetic waves that are a form of radiant energy. Microwaves have a special affinity towards water, sugar and fat. Microwaves reflect from metal surfaces and therefore metals cannot be used in the microwave oven. Microwaves pass through glass, paper, plastic, wood, bone-china etc. Like light and radio waves, microwave are also a form of electromagnetic radiation. The most important part of the microwave is the magnetron whose function is to generate the microwaves.
Advantages of Microwave Cooking 1. Food prepared in a microwave oven is cooked in minimal water, therefore promotes the retention of watersoluble vitamins, particularly Vitamin C and most other nutrients and therefore, food is more nutritious. 2. It preserves the natural flavors of food, which makes you less likely to add extra sugar or salt. 3. Reheating food quickly in a microwave retains more nutrient than holding food hot for long periods. 4. Fat- free cooking is also possible. As food is cooked in its own moisture, no added fats such as butter/oil are needed, therefore it is a boon for dieters. 5. Food gets cooked more quickly. 6. No loss of natural colors of food. 7. Convenient and easier than conventional methods. 8. Defrosting and reheating is easy. 9. Energy is saved as cooking time is reduced.

COOKWARE TO BE USEDUtensils
Only utensils which are designed for the purpose should be used in a microwave oven. Many types of microwave- friendly utensils are available in the market, but remember to use only utensils marked Microwave safe. Glass, ceramic containers and all plastics that are safe to use, will usually be labeled for microwave oven use. Glass dishes with metallic gold or silver trims are unsuitable as they may spark when placed in the oven. Metal dishes, pans, thermometers, metal skewers or foil trays may not be used in any oven. Plastic that is labelled 'dishwasher safe' is often also microwave safe. Canned food should never be heated in the can. Heavy-duty plastic 'speciality' microwave cookwares are excellent for microwave cooking and roasting. Paper towels may be used in variety of ways. Use the towel to prevent rice or meat splatters, and in between bacon slices to absorb liquid or crisp it and steamed food can be resteamed using a damp dish cloth wrapped over the food to provide the required moisture.

Besan Ladoo
INGREDIENTS
1 CUP BESAN 1 STICK BUTTER (1/2 CUP BUTTER, OR 8 TABLESPOONS BUTTER) 1/2 CUP POWDERED SUGAR 1/2 TEASPOON POWDERED CARDAMOM 1/4 TEASPOON POWDERED NUTMEG

Preparation
Mix besan and butter (cut in cubes if there are straight from the fridge) in a microwaveable safe flat dish. If you have a dish where the food doesn't stick to the plate after microwaving , it would serve the purpose much better. Microwave for 5 minutes , stirring the mixture a little after every minute. As suggested at Saffron Trail, you may increase your time to additional 2 minutes if your microwave power is low. At the end of 5 minutes, take the pan out of the microwave and wait until it cools down (it should be cool, not cold, so don't rush and keep it in the fridge ;) ]. It should take half hour to cool down. Add powdered sugar, cardamom and nutmeg to the mixture and stir well and then make round. Store these laddoos in the fridge after these were formed for around 1 hour. This helps in setting the laddoo and then enjoy the laddoos.
