Add salt at the end of cooking or during standing time because salt has a dehydrating effect. Note that the time required to cook rice (or pasta) in a microwave oven is more or less the same as required to cook it traditionally on the stove. The advantage of preparing a risotto in a microwave lies in the fact that it does not require continual stirring (two to three times is enough). Place all the ingredients in a microwave resistant dish and cover with film. For 300g of rice, you need 750g of broth and maximum microwave power level for 12 - 15 minutes. [. . . ] Always keep the microwave outlet covers (C) free from grease or splashes of fat. Do not use abrasives, steel wool or sharp metal utensils to clean the outside of the oven. Do not allow water or liquid detergent to penetrate the air and steam outlet vents on the top of the appliance. Do not use alcohol, scouring powders, or ammonia-based detergents to clean the inside or outside of the door. [. . . ]
