Start learning to
use your microwave oven and save time in the kitchen! Slicing potatoes more
thinly has the effect of microwave-drying the slices similarly to the way an
oven would dry them. Added fat (olive oil) gets extremely hot (400+ degrees)
and “browns” the potatoes. This
recipe is also perfect for busy cooks who enjoy a good homely meal.
