Overview
PING! by bestselling food writer Justine Pattison is a brilliantly practical cookbook devoted entirely to the microwave, proving it can do so much more than reheat leftovers. Packed with over 100 accessible, modern recipes, this hardback guide shows budget-conscious cooks, students, small-space dwellers and busy families how to create genuinely delicious meals in a fraction of the time and energy of conventional cooking. From speedy breakfasts to an impressive microwave "roast" chicken, every dish is designed to be quick, cost-effective and surprisingly gourmet.

About the Book
PING! is a fresh, confident rethink of what the microwave can achieve in a home kitchen. Rather than treating it as a shortcut appliance for jacket potatoes and reheated dinners, Justine Pattison uses it as a genuine cooking tool capable of producing restaurant-quality results. The book is organised for easy meal planning, moving through quick breakfasts and grab-and-go snacks, nourishing soups, and effortless dinners ready in under 25 minutes, before finishing with indulgent desserts and bakes. Recipes such as Cream of Tomato Soup, Butter Chicken, Speedy Cauliflower Cheese, Salmon with Ginger and Soy, and a zesty Lemon Drizzle Cake demonstrate the sheer range on offer, while a show-stopping microwave "roast" chicken proves the appliance can handle special-occasion cooking too. Every recipe is tested for real kitchens, with clear step-by-step instructions, handy wattage conversion tables and useful freezer tips throughout. The result is a cookbook that saves time, money and energy without compromising on flavour, equally at home with students, small households and busy parents looking to cut costs.
