Cooking bacon in Micrawave

[pusskin]

can anyone give any tips as to cooking bacon in microwave please?

Good idea? Normally I cook in a Grorge Forman. x ( I fancy a change)

he's ^ right ....nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[pusskin]

Oh No, I thought it may be a good idea haha
Thought you'd say it was very tasty!

My mum does that, it's grim. She puts a kitchen towel over it I think. It ends up coming out looking anaemic with moist white fatty bits... it's a bloody crime against bacon.

For 6 rashers back bacon I cook in pyrex shallow dish for 2mins 20secs, turn over then same again. You can always do it a bit less or bit longer to suit. My oven is 700w power.

ha Ha okay, will get Georgy out again and carry on as i normally do.

Thanks very much for saving me a ruined meal x lol

Please don't do it. I dry-fry in a frying pan because I like it extra-crispy!

[furrypusscat]

My husband prefers it that way but I must admit I like mine fried. It can look a bit anaemic, I agree.

Mmmm, its a bother cooking in a George Forman, all that cleaning, but frying pan returns once again for tonight. Thanks for replies Abers.
Enjoy your meals tonight x

Buy microwave grillplate for bacon
Cover bacon with kitchen paper
Microwave bacon 4 mins
Throw away

What cleaning?
If I use the GF for bacon I put a couple of pieces of kitchen towel on the grill, pour on a little water from the kettle and shut the lid . It will basically clean itself.

As soon as you take bacon off your griddle wipe it down straight away with kitchen paper. Job done. Just needs a wipe over with dampcloth then when cool.

[pusskin]

Ha ha yee yee i know! I clean it that way every time.
its just that I'm coughing and spluttering and everything seems such an effort tonight. Cheers again abers xx

[wendilla]

your the one that said all that cleaning. lol

[pusskin]

Oh i know wendilla, I did say that and i meant it for tonight.
Feel like hopping into bed instead of cooking. Womans work is never finished ay x

[wendilla]

I know the feeling . Hope you feel better tomorrow.

[pusskin]

Thanks wendilla. Will have a doze tonight as i cant keep my eyes open.
Sneezing--coughing-- spluttering x

So sorry for not getting back sooner!

Thanks for the link divegirl, sounds good to me, but would only do it that way if I had other things to cook at the same time.
I fried my bacon last night while coughing and spluttering! Then flopped on settee and slept. Cheers abers for all replies x
