1. Tandoori Roti at Home

With the bread basket feature, I made soft, fluffy tandoori rotis right in the microwave. The combination cooking mode delivered a crispy base, no tandoor, no oil, just one button press for restaurant-style results.

3. Low-Temp Slow Cooking

I cooked a delicate paneer curry using the low-temperature mode (around 110°C). The result? Tender, juicy paneer cubes full of flavour, with no stove, no stirring, and no hassle. Plus, with temperature control from 40°C to 110°C, it’s perfect for gently drying foods too.

4. Home-Style French Fries

Craving fries? The Home Fry preset gave me golden, crispy French fries with just a touch of oil. Healthier than deep frying, and no extra fryer or cleanup needed!

From frozen kebabs to tikkis, the defrost function evenly thawed everything, no cold centers or overcooked edges. It’s my go-to kitchen hack for quick and tasty meals.
