In the microwave
The amount of water and pasta for cooking in the microwave should be in a 2: 1 ratio. That is, for 0, 1 kg of dry products, you need to take 0, 2 liters of liquid.
Pour water into a glass dish, put it in the microwave, turn it on and wait until it boils. Now add the pasta, the water should completely cover it. Add salt and 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Cooking time for pasta in a microwave oven at a power of 500 W in a sealed container is about 10 minutes.
