Re: Please, Can Anyone Recommend A Combination Microwave Oven??
So I suppose you can cook a chicken and roast potatoes and puddings . I'm the old fashioned type of cook and enjoy the old fashioned stick to yer ribs like glue dinners . I use a basic microwave for reheating and pop potatoes in for 5 mins before crisping them in the electric oven .I love technology but I dont always understand it
Thanks Art

Having Googled your model number it’s probably the same as ours but the front’s different .
Mine has a panel on the right hand side with a selection of things you might want to cook .Jacket potatoes is one button to press then you’re instructted to put in the weight ....I always think 200 is ok for 1 potato .
The combi is then automatically selected , time comes up and includes the grill coming on to crisp up the skin , you simply press Start .
Does it not show you in the instruction booklet how to do this ?

As for cooking your own meals , I’ve done my bit of that over many years , including Cottage and Shepherd’s Pies from scratch , but now my hands are arthritic I’ m not over clever at peeling potatoes or preparing dishes that need to be lifted into the oven because I drop things all day long .
I never thought I would have to resort to the odd CP ready meal but I’m afraid needs must .

There’s a Cookery Advice Line phone number on the back of my instruction book for guidance and cooking .If yours is the same you could ask them for guidance ?
Always use the metal plate on top of the glass plate when cooking jackets on Combi .
Try putting the potato in and pressing Auto if you have that choice , see what instruction comes up .

I haven’t tried it yet.
Oh and Thank You for the tip about using the metal tray on the glass turntable. I didn’t use it with my last Panasonic Combination Microwave.
