Fry in Microwave oven

[sankum]

Yetserday I was short of Oil for deep frying so used my microwave over to fry chips. Donno what happened but with in few sec it was giving some weird sound and smoke started coming. I was scared and stoped the oven. Can anyone suggest me how to fry in microwave without facing these problems?

Welome to our forum Sankum!!!

Hi Sankum,

You did well to stop the Microwave immediately!!! It is not intended for frying in and that could be a fire hazzard. Also never put anything metal or containing metal in a microwave.

We would like for you to be around to share all your terrific recipes with us and still have a kitchen to cook in

Frying in a microwave is akin to drag racing on your lawn mower..

sankum - tell us what you did - then we can help you - for instance - did you place foil in the microwave, etc.

usually i do this in oven by preheating it . This time i just wanted to try if it would work with microwave, which i think has become a greatest comedy show here in my kitchen.Lol! Anyways thanks to all for sharing their thoughts.
