MICROWAVE SPICED POTATO CHIPS RECIPE

Enjoy your potato chips in  a quicker and healthier way using microwave.

I discover this Microwave Spiced Potato Chips recipe by browsing You Tube channels and so excited to give it a try.  Used 2 large peeled potato for this experiment.  You may leave the skin on if you like.

Slice the potato really thin by hand or using a mandolin.  Soak them in cold water to remove excess starch.

Leave to dry completely  by wiping with clean towel.  Coat with oil and spices or just add salt and pepper. .

Arrange potato chips in a single layer on oiled microwave proof plate.  Baked mine for 14 minutes using Medium setting.  This varies according  to  individual wattage of  microwave oven so adjust accordingly.

This Microwave Spiced Potato Chips won the hearts of my family.  They are crunchy, well  spiced and addictive.

10 MINUTE MW CHOCOLATE CAKE

This 10 Minute Microwave Chocolate Cake is  the ultimate choice  to  satisfy your sweet cravings. quickly.  Made with all the ingredients you might already have in your pantry without an oven.

Some of you might think that microwave cake yields a dry and weird taste but this is not the case for this 10 Minute Microwave Chocolate Cake. It was soft  and insanely delicious.

Make sure you grease your microwave save bowl  generously and line with baking paper especially if you're using glass ones.  Your microwave safe dish should be deep enough to let the cake rise,  fill up only  1/2  of the cake batter into greased bowl..  Mine stick to the bottom of my Arcoflam bowl but I manage to remove it.

Baked the cake using High Power (1000 W) for 5 minutes then switch to Medium for another 1 minutes.  Do check out your wattage power, if you have a lower wattage you need a longer bake time. Always cook it for the shortest time first, you can add another minute once you check it but you can't take away time when you've overcooked something.
