PERFECT CORNED BEEF FROM THE MICROWAVE
I was given this recipe by a work friend about 17 years ago when I was just a young bride learning my way in the kitchen. I am still young and this is still my husband's favourite recipe for corn beef. It's simple and the flavour is not cluttered up with cloves and onion.

Steps:
- Place corned beef into oven bag.
- Add all ingredients & then tie knot in bag (or with string etc).
- Shake to mix.
- Place bag with meat fat side up in a microwave container which is large enough to fit (this is for safety reasons as liquid will be extremely hot when done).
- Pierce bag a couple of times to allow steam to escape.
- Microwave on HIGH for 10 Minutes.
- Then reduce to a simmer & cook for 20 minutes per 500grams (1.1lbs).(power level 6 on my microwave).
- Allow to stand for 30 Minutes.
- Slice and serve hot.
- (Leave any left over portions in liquid until serving so the meat does not dry out.).
- Note:- It is possible to make this in a large enough microwave bowl without the bag. The bowl must have a lid with holes and the liquid must cover the meat entirely ie. double the recipe.
MICROWAVE COOKED CORNED BEEF
Corned beef served with Orange & Ginger Sauce as given to me by my husband's cousin. Once you've cooked your corned beef this way, you won't do it any other way. This was cooked in a 600watt oven, so times may need changing for higher powered ovens.

MICROWAVE CORN ON THE COB
This is a no-nonsense recipe for corn on the cob. Perfect for when you run out of stove or grill space. I freeze the corn on the cob in plastic bags, and remove a single ear of frozen corn in the cold winter months to have the sweet taste of summer corn throughout the year!

5 MINUTE MICROWAVE CORNBREAD
It literally takes me 5 minutes to get this cornbread on the table--including absolutely all steps. I'll be honest--it tastes better baked in a regular oven. But it's still pretty darn good in the microwave, and sometimes I only have 5 minutes!

Tips:
- Choose a corned beef brisket that is about 3 to 4 pounds in weight. A larger brisket will not cook evenly in the microwave.
- Rinse the corned beef brisket under cold water to remove any excess salt. Pat the brisket dry with paper towels.
- Place the brisket in a large microwave-safe dish. Add the water, brown sugar, pickling spice, and bay leaves to the dish.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and microwave on high power for 15 minutes. Reduce the power to medium and microwave for an additional 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the brisket is tender.
- Let the brisket rest for 15 minutes before carving. Serve with boiled potatoes, cabbage, and carrots.
Conclusion:
Microwaving corned beef is a quick and easy way to cook this traditional Irish dish. The microwave cooks the brisket evenly and in a fraction of the time it takes to cook it in the oven. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious and tender corned beef dinner in your microwave.
