You're literally amazing! We bought our convection microwave 4 days back and we were all confused about its usage even after the installation process, but you solved it all easily.
We bought it almost 3 years ago and never used😂😂

And the only thing I have baked in it is pizza😶😶
Now I m watching his videos to utilise my oven to it's full potential...ᕙ(͡°‿ ͡°)ᕗ

I was baking a cake for the first time in my life for my Husband’s birthday (one of your recipes only), and I was clueless about ‘pre-heating’ and stuff and then hopped onto searching for a microwave usage for baking videos and landed on this one..U explained the entire process as if you were talking to me directly and it was soooo easy to understand.
Thankyou Shivesh 😀
Thie guy saved my life when i decided to make a cake at 3AM without realizing that i dont know a thing about our microwave lmmaaooo thanks alot from the bottom of my heaaartttt 🤙🤡

@@seherjafferi1243 so you're saying if they baked a cake they didn't make on? 😅
it’s 4:26 am here and I'm craving for cake and decided to watch this as I never made one in my microwave.
Saved the video 3 years earlier, just bought my first convection microwave and RAN TO THIS VIDEO ❤❤
This is SUCH a good series initiative. Just the other day, my aunt asked me a recipe and I asked her to pre-heat her oven, she didn't know how to. And she is just starting to develop a liking for baking.
I sent her the link to your video as soon as you posted. 🌻

Thank you shivesh! Tried baking my life's 1st ever cake today and it came out to be a perfect one!
For years I used microwave only for heating food. After watching this video I started baking in my microwave. Now I make cakes, breads, rolls and more. It's so much fun. Thank you Shivesh
In conventional microwave??
Is your microwave normal or with conventional mode? If it's a normal microwave, kindly save me by guiding me on how to use please 🙏 I'm more confused after trying 😢
Baking requires convection mode
I always thought we can only use microwave safe utensils even in convection mode.
This video helped a lot.
Who all can relate?
This is exactly what i needed in the morning when i was using my convection microwave for baking pizza!
Pizza settings kya the apke ??
convection mode 180° and how many minutes ????
In my microwave 2 modes are available...1. grill + convection and 2. Micro+ convection
Which one to use?
So well explained ! I searched you tube like anything for the whole preheating thing but no one has explained this well. Concepts clear in such a short time . !!!
This is exactly what I needed lol tomorrow's by birthday I'm baking a cake for the first time ever in a microwave I was so confused how to preheat lmao thanks man!
How did it go, please share your tips
Happy birthday in late

This solved so many doubts I had about using the convection mode in my microwave. I would even switch it off and unplug after using, not allowing it to cool down. Thanks a lot! Also, is it okay to place a glass baking dish on low rack in convection mode?
Finally Finally after so many years I got my answer. And the perfect answer on how to bake in microwave convection mode. Thank you shivesh ❣️
Thanks it's very helpful in baking......❤ I started my channel ....your vedio help me in future
Thank you so much!!! My cakes always turned out bad in microwave and even worse in otg. Both these videos of otg and microwave hacks are life saving
OMG I'm just getting obsessed with this channel. It's like you can actually read my mind about all my baking confusions 😁 Love your videos and your way of making it easy for beginners like us 😘 Loads of love ❤️
I literally just asked you for microwave instructions on heating mode on your latest vanilla cake recipe haha. You really are the answer to all my baking related prayers 🤣
Finally a video that I needed. Thank you. Much better than 100s of videos that I watched even the official ones.
Thank You Shivesh. This is the most appropriate video about baking in microwave that I have seen. You have answered each and every question that was in my mind for long and which was always getting in the way of my baking. Today all my questions have been answered that to with good explanation. Keep going Shivesh. I am following your channnel for more baking.
I moved to the UK this year and bought a very similar microwave/convection oven combo, but it wasn't like anything I've ever used, so I've been afraid to use it as anything but a microwave so far. The instructions weren't the clearest with regards to what kind of cookware you can use on convection and if it's just like a normal convection oven, etc. I'm totally going to try baking a cake in it soon after seeing this. :) Thanks!
Baked my cake as per instructions here..Came out great! Thanks so much😊
This was much needed! My previous microwave started smoking while preheating!
Ooops! I’m so glad this helped 🥰

@@BakeWithShivesh Heyy.... If the microwave doesn't start on convection mode without entering the time, what's the ideal time for preheating?? Please reply. I put it in preheat for 10 min... And the cake got burnt.

What would be the perfect time to bake in the microwave at 180 degrees
Hey Shivesh, it was of great help to me, I made cake after a a decade, Hehe. Such a clear understanding , meticulous explanation in just minutes, however it took 10 mins more, my be due to ingredients that I put, thanks a ton, God bless u❤
My lg microwave is working properly but for baking I am looking for a convection model but now after watching your video I think I can use this only for baking too.... thanks you saved my money for some time with my lg microwave.
Thanks for your much needed support.😃❤
Thanks! Now I can prevent my cakes from becoming the Incredible Hulk.
I screwed up 2 cakes today and then I thought I'd watch a video 😂
😭 I messed up 2 cakes too. And I'm so depressed and frustrated
A video for all the confused users. A very informative video. Thank you Shivesh.
This video is really helpful, kind of life saver. Was unaware of concection mode , and how t set time for baking cake . Thanks for the information. I have the same microwave oven. Nice video 👍
Hey Shivesh,
Whenever I bake my brownies, the middle part sinks and remains uncooked. This happens even though I follow the same instructions in the recipe. Do you have any tips on how I can adjust the temperature?
Also, in a regular convection oven is it necessary to pre heat the oven at 180°c or with the temperature mentioned in the recipe?
Convection mode, cooks the sides first and then the middle(according to the temp. set).
And brownies need high heating temp. since they don't rise or have very less baking soda/powder in it- which means less airier than a cake.If u wanna make brownies just use the heating mode for about 4-5 mins on high.
This also happens with my cake always when I make cake in an oven..so now I make cakes in a pressure cooker
Same this always happens with my cake although i follow the same instruction except the preheating part :(( as my microwave starts smoking aaaa

Hi. Should I use the same method for a cake on my normal microwave?
Do I also preheat for 4 minutes? I'm worried as I tried and my microwave started smelling like burned wire so I took the cake to the oven but it wasn't nice. I really want to bake it in my microwave but I don't understand this video explanation after putting in to practice 😂 it sounded easy after watching the 1st time but ain't, not for me, so please dear, will you guide me?
1. Do I preheat 1st and how long?
2. Should I still bake if the microwave doesn't feel hot but slightly warm?
3. Should I worry for know smell?
Thank you so much bro, iam afraid to make cakes inspite of having a micro wave. After seeing the way u guide, it's easy for me thank you so much once again
Hello Shivesh! I have a basic grill microwave with no convection mode, with options such as defrosting, high, medium, low, grill, combo 1;2;3 .
Every time I bake, my cake sinks and becomes very hard, can you suggest what to do? (Ps. I used the same batter to bake it in a cooker and it was very spongy and moist.
Use combination button for 15 minutes
Thank you soo much for this. After following all this my cakes and cookies come out perfect
Thnkuuuuu soooooo muchhhhh for removing all the confusion 😅
THE video I was looking for
I wish I had found your channel earlier.. I bought an otg recently even though I had microwave.. because I was told that we cannot bake in microwave... I also tried many times to bake a cake in my microwave, but always failed... so I gave up and bought an otg..😫😫
Is this necessary to put lower rack while baking
in convection mode, ideally yes. In Microwave mode no, don't use the rack.
Thanking you soo much Shivesh to coming back to the basics..... It's really soo imp.
Super Shivesh! You make it so simple and easy!! Thanks!!
Wow this is sooo helpful! Can you please enlighten me why my microwave emits a sort of burning smell everytime I try to preheat?
The heating coils gets so heated that it glows red hot and that may cause the smell 😅
@@SAMRAT_00001 should we do something about it or its normal to emit such smell?
I love the heating mode....and hardly find any difference for the dry thing as said I just soak some sugar syrup..my personal opinion
Same!
I have the same oven as yours but when I set 35 minutes in Convection Mode, my oven turns itself off automatically after some moment (may be due to overheating). Can you suggest any solution?
Same thing happens in my microwave too. I too have the same model. When I called up samsung they said that the microwave gets heated up after 20 minutes and goes off automatically. We have to wait for it to cool down and then continue with the remaining time. I had to switch to my oven. Fortunately I was baking a desert that day and not a cake. I really wonderful whether that works.
what is the oven model
😅 I was confused , not confused in fact I had no idea of baking a cake in a microwave ... So I always go to the safer side to bake it in the cooker ......if I take risk in this and waste the things , I don't think I will be alright if my mom knows this 😅😅 then she will bake me instead of cake 😌😌😂😂😅. .........a very thanks to you 😊 for teaching me this ...😅I should have seen this before 🙁....thank God I atleast found this out now 😃😃 thank you so much
Thank U For A VERY VERY HELPFUL Video---All my doubts about microwaves have cleared--HIGHLY HIGHLY GRATEFUL!!!😍😍😍😍
Hi ya. My microwave has a convection mode but I never knew I could put in aluminium cake tins in my microwave when using it in convection mode. Please confirm it once again for me!!!
I have the same query as above. Please confirm.
Ist. For Microvave use only glass bowls or ceramic wares or some specific plastic bowls.
2nd For convection use any metal moulds.
Hi Shivesh.. my convection microwave doesn’t have a preheat function. Hw can I preheat in the convection mode?
do you have the rotating plates system in bottom of the oven??
Then u can reheat your food easily or else it's bit hard.
MRkinn no no i was talking abt the preheat option used fr baking
Do we always have to use the wire rack while we bake a cake in the convection mode ?
Yes the middle wire rack
@@sanskritibista2395 can i use a low rack because i have a low one and i high one
Killer Kong by middle rack I meant the lower rack. Yes you can use it to bake
Thank you for right information
@@sanskritibista2395 can you please suggest me a baking tin which I can use for baking in microwave
I always thought that why my cake gets ready in 8 mins! Theirs took 30 mins
i too dont understand y
Exactly it burns if it’s more than 10min
Yeah! In 7 minutes.
Omg 🤧🤧🤧🤧
Microwave mode takes 10 mins tops.... Convection mode takes around 30 mins
Hi your explanation is really good, it helped to clear all my doubts regarding convection mode,thank you
The best detailed video I have seen so far... So so beautifully explained... Thank you so much💖
Show how to bake a cake in microwave without convection mode..
Simply press microwave button and set the time
Neha Joshi obviously I know that..I’m asking how much time ?
@@sakshir6878 7 to 8 min
@@sakshir6878 4-5mint enough time to bake the cake on regular heating mode.
What is heating mode pls explain anyone
Hey shivesh , it always happens with me that the top layer of cake gets hard while the bottom layer remains uncooked
Same happens to me..
With me too
Same here too...any better option
Why not giving answer shivesh
Same happens here every time with new lg mc2887bfum all in one oven
why my cakes in convection always overcooked from top n uncooked from inside??
The same thing happens with me too 😔
Same with me.. Cake cracks and drying in top but not cooked inside. I had changed temp setting 180 degree to even 110 degrees but not success
yeah same happening with me, tried to lower down temp but no use n try to chk at 20 mins but uncooked from inside n burnt from outside
So issue not related to my oven 😄 actually I was thinking to returned the oven to seller (Amazon). Now realised that the problem exist in almost all microwave ovens. So I keep the oven with me (lg mc2887bfum)
@@mohika6164 here is the tips..
1) cover the top of the tray with holed aluminum foil while baking
2) reduce heat to 20-30° and increase baking time
3) use thicker aluminum cake tin instead of thinner iron tin
4) try without low rack (cake stand) to reduce height of cake tin
5) use oil instead of butter.
I did not know how to bake a cake in a microwave. Thanks for the detailed instructions. I could bake a cake. I would be baking many more in future.
Very very useful Brother... I feel headache every time when I bake cake..Now I am satisfying to see your video.. i will try now...
Hi Shivesh. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. A Q: Why did you choose Morphy over Borosil when you switched to a higher size? Kindly share what is lacking in borosil, and what is additional in Morphy. I am considering the 42L Borosil OTG.
Hi shivesh
SOO HAPPY SOMEONES FINALLY DOING THISSSS
Can we use this mode for other baked goods too? Like breads or cheesecakes?
I used it for bread.
👌👍
Sir LG solo microwave 2049 kaise use kare..usme cake banane k liye aluminium mould use kar skate hai kya?
no don't use aluminium
he said only in the convection mode you can use aluminium
Thank u so much ...I actually have a microwave and the information about the temperature was the most useful
Thank you so much..after 4 years this vedio still solves problems..manul doesnt help much
Also, I preheated the microwave for 10 mins at 180°. Then at the same temperature put the mixture inside for 30 minutes. At 28th minute I felt that the sides are little burnt since they started turning black(although they didn't taste burnt) and cracks were also big enough. So I stopped the microwave. However while cutting the bread into pieces I realised that some inner part was still not baked properly. So how to manage the baking time.? Because if I would have kept the bread inside for next 2-3 minutes then it would have burnt. So are there any tips for microwave baking related to my issue? Are there any other whisking techniques when it comes to microwave baking? I heard from my friends that the sides of breads/ cakes bake faster in convection microwave. How can we make sure that the cake/ bread is baked evenly in convection microwave?
Even i had the same problem
Me too
i am having this prob since years....then i turned to cooker cake making. In microwave mode cake turns super hard ...in convection mode it turns out half baked
I also had the same problem
In the convection mode my cake starts browning on the top very quickly. Why does that happen? I cover the top part with aluminium foil at the halfway mark and it ends up being fine. Is there any way to prevent this from happening.
Iam also facing the same prob so started baking in cooker
My cake also got burnt from top 😕
Same is happening with me. How to solve this issue
same
Every oven is bit different from each other baking is always a trial and error method and we hv to adjust the temp and keep it low instead of preheating for 5 mins u all can go for 3mins and first set the temperature for 15mins for baking the cake then u check if not properly done go for another 10mins and check and again for 5mins and in this way u can get a perfect cake because if u bake the cake in slow process it will be superb andbi can say from my personal experience
When I tried to use convention mode there were literal flames in the microwave, nothing bad happened 🤞🏻
😂😂😂😂😂I would describe it the same way
I have this exact model of microwave . So it became even easier for me. Thank you so much ☺️
Precise, no extra unwanted talks, Perfect.. Marry me 😄
I have the same microwave ditto same one..,,but whenever I put the cake for baking.....it cuts off after every 10 min idk y🤷♀️🤷♀️
I had the same problem but as he says I use eco button first and problem solved
My cake browns a lot from the top yet stays undercooked in the middle whenever i use the convection mode in my microwave.Cud u suggest wt cud i b doing wrong? 180°is the temp i bake at...tried reducing baking time too...still it burns frm the top.
Ya I too faced this problem initially .. pierce some hole in aluminium foil and cover the cake tin and bake it Dr it won't burn the top layer and atlast 10 mins remove the foil and bake it will give nice brown colour to the cake.. hope it might help you.
Me too
Me. Too
Same thing happened with me today
Since compared to otg's your microwave has a smaller inside surface you must bake it at a lower temperature. Instead of 180 , try it with 170. Don't open the microwave until 80% of time has passed. Then check it and judge the amount of more time it may need!
Hi shivesh, I wanted to ask that my microwave takes 10 to 12 min in Convection mode to bake a cake.. But most of the time my cake turn out soft when hot and it becomes hard when cooled. Can u please say why is this so? Thank you
It gets dehydrated. Just cover it. Then after cooling remove the cover and then remove.
Thanks a ton shivesh....i baked my first cake today and it turned out sooo good
He explains it very well, I'm Australian but I didn't have any trouble following his directions.
since a convection microwave only heats the food from above, my cakes are often undercooked from the bottom even if I cook them for as long as 30-35 minutes. Do you have any idea why? I also preheat for at least 15 minutes.
Time is not involved while pre heating - preheating is done just to bring the oven to the desired temperature before u actually start baking by using the convection mode - just preheat for desired temperature and then bake on convection mode - it will cook properly
If we do not have convention mode to bake a cake, how to bake a cake if we have watts ?????????
My cake just take 10 min or 8 min in my microwave i always think why you're cake takes 30 or 40 min 🤣
My cake burnt when I kept it inside the oven for 30 minutes (I had preheated it to 180 degree).
