You'll have to experiment with cooking times with your microwave. Just
start with short times to be safe. Eventually you'll get a good idea on
how long at first. Then maybe wait a bit then cook a little longer.
Often, warm up a bit, stir then continue cooking.

Microwave oven is my favorite gadget. I use it every day. Good for
reheating but also good for start to finish cooking in many cases.

You can't just punch in a time and expect it to be done. Best to cook in
steps with waiting period inbetween.
