Microwave ovens are undoubtedly one of the most revolutionary appliances in Indian kitchens.

In modern-day cooking, energy efficiency and time-saving are the biggest priorities for people, and microwaves excel at both. Microwaves have exceptionally reduced the time required for cooking and reheating leftovers or pre-cooked meals, making them more convenient than traditional gas stoves and ovens.
Microwaves have also expanded the variety of foods prepared in Indian kitchens, encouraging the inclusion of dishes like cakes, cookies, and pasta, which were not traditionally part of everyday life. Additionally, microwaves come in compact sizes and offer various functions in one appliance, such as baking, steaming, and grilling.
