It is estimated that over 90% of the nation's households own a microwave. But did you know that recent research has shown that because of the lack of power that it uses, compared with conventional cooking methods, the microwave works out the cheapest of all the cooking appliances? And with energy costs spiralling to unthinkable levels, it seems that the microwave's moment has come - and not before time. Because of its energy efficiency isn't it time to use it every day creatively rather than just warming up leftovers?

There are countless dishes and ingredients that are ideal for cooking in a microwave, for one or two people. Vegetables cook perfectly, losing fewer nutrients than in a pan and fish is generally regarded better done in the microwave than poached or steamed.

So with that in mind, this collection of both time-honoured and newly created microwave-compatible favourites is here for you to enjoy.
