Maybe you are a student who doesn't have a stove. Maybe you can cause a fire if you use the microwave. Regardless of your reasons, read on how to make pasta in the microwave. Very simple to make delicious food, and of course delicious.
Step
Step 1. Pour a small amount of pasta into a microwave-safe bowl
(You can only use ceramic or glass bowls in the microwave, not plastic ones.) About half a cup is enough, as the pasta will expand as it cooks.
Step 2. Add water to the bowl until the pasta is submerged by about a few inches or centimeters
Step 3. Place the bowl on a plate and put it in the microwave
(the plate will hold when water comes out, but definitely not)
Step 4. Take the recommended time to cook the pasta from the box and add 3-4 minutes
Microwave the pasta at this time. Depending on how much heat your microwave generates, this could take longer or less.
Step 5. Check if the pasta is cooked through and remove a piece
Cook a few more minutes if it's still firm.
Step 6. Spill the paste down the sink
A small filter is the most effective thing to use. If you don't have one, you can remove the boiling water by tilting the bowl into the sink, pressing down with a large spoon, being careful not to let the pasta slip out. You can also take it spoonful at a time.
Step 7. Heat the sauce for 35 seconds in the microwave
Or, use salt and butter or olive oil. Add your favorite spices to the pasta.
Step 8. It's done
Enjoy your meal!
Tips
- Make sure to stir the pasta every two minutes
- Make sure the meat is not cooked if you use it.
- Place some butter or some olive oil in the bowl to prevent the pasta from sticking.
- Try adding a few pieces of vegetables or meat to the pasta for added flavor. For frozen vegetables and meat, you can mix it with pasta; make sure they are taken first. If you are only heating vegetables and meat, add them with the sauce.
- Don't pour cold water on your pasta, it will make it slippery.
- You can also pour cold water over the pasta after removing it from the microwave.
