Recipe Ideas for your Russell Hobbs Microwave Rocky Road Cake in a Mug Ingredients 2 tbsp butter, 1 tbsp cocoa powder, 1 medium egg, 3 tbsp caster sugar, 2 tbsp self-raising flour, 4 tbsp mini marshmallows, 1 tbsp raisins, 2 tbsp broken rich tea biscuits Method 1. Add the butter to a large microwavable mug of at least 350ml. Microwave for 10-20 seconds to melt. 2. Add the cocoa powder and stir to combine. Next add the egg and sugar, beating with a fork. 3. Add the flour and beat again until smooth. 4. Stir in most of the marshmallows, raisins and biscuits and sit the remaining on top. 5. Cook on full power for 1 minute 40 seconds. Check that the mixture is cooked. If not, add time and check at 30 second intervals until it is completely cooked through. Fuss-Free Poached Egg 1 medium egg, A pinch of salt, Recently boiled water 1. Using water from a recently boiled kettle, half fill a microwavable mug. 2. Add a pinch of salt and carefully crack the egg into the water. 3. Microwave on full power for 30 seconds. 4. Check the egg.

Add the macaroni to a microwavable mug of at least 350ml and cover with water, adding a pinch of salt. You may need to vary the water level depending on mug size, ensuring there is enough to cover the pasta. 2. Microwave on full power for a total of 8 minutes, or until al dente, stirring after every 2 minutes and adding more water if necessary. 3.

The microwave is also easy to clean; simply wipe with a damp cloth to maintain excellent performance. Avoiding Mishaps To avoid any microwave mishaps it is recommended to take extra care with the following Low moisture foods (eg. cereals, bagels, dried pasta, pulses and chocolate) - These must be cooked on a low power level for a very short length of time, or preferably not at all. High sugar content foods (eg. jams, syrups) - These foods can become easily ‘super-heated’ when cooked in a microwave oven. Foods containing alcohol - Foods with an alcohol content must not be cooked in a microwave as they could ignite. Foods with a membrane or outer skin (eg. fruits, sausages, potatoes) - Food with a sealed or none porous skin must be pierced to allow pressure and steam to escape

Review: Beautiful, Compact and Useful - I searched a long time for MW before buying and then bought that model. It looks really beautiful and reminds me of my youngish years. So, it makes me happy. Usage: what the cook expects from MW is an important question. We are mostly using it to boil water, defrost the frozen foods and warm up some breads or cooked meals. So, this model is perfect enough for us. We never cook any meal in MW by using its features because there are other tools to do that better than MW. So easy use and perfect look are positive for that model. The size may be taken into account as a negative point. It is not big, 17 litres and compact. There isn’t a grill option but it’s not an important point for me because I have a proper grill as well. Why I would use a relatively weak mw grill option instead of the better grill? So, it makes me happy about its beautiful look. Result: Easy, compact and so useful machine.
Review: J'adore - I love love love this microwave. It's analog and does exactly what I want and ONLY what I want and need. It is free from all those settings you never use. It's free from difficult interfaces and touchscreen buttons that don't work. It's free from the nagging and perpetual reminder beeps. It's simple. It's super mobility and sensory friendly. It's compact but still fits full sized plates. And it's cute and retro in style. I wish I'd had one of these my whole life.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you like retro, this is it!
*by T***N on 26 September 2020*

Lovely machine. I can't comment on it's longevity as I only got it two days ago, but it looks good and does the job. Not quite sure that I understand the problem with having to go to two minutes then back for anything less than two minutes. Let's face it, you have the same problem going forwards as well as back, you don't have a 'seconds' option either way. Unless you are doing some pretty precise cooking, then this shouldn't be a problem and to be honest, if you are looking to be doing precise cooking, then you should be buying a digital microwave. I also don't understand the negative comments about the label on the front. Okay, it would be nice if the manufacturer could have attached a more user friendly label, but 30 seconds with a bit of white spirit and the flat end of a wooden skewer and it was off. No lasting damage to the machine and not need for a hammer and chisel! Come on folks, if you're going to complain about something then make it something useful that can people can use to make an informed decision on whether or not to buy. Bottom line - if you want a good looking microwave that does the job at the price, then you could do worse than this.
