Trying something new

Well, I did it. I joined those thousands of people who've bought something from QVC. I purchased the K37115-Prepology 5-piece Nonstick Microgrill Set Purple. I'm on a purple kick, so a lot of what I've been buying lately is purple. Not that I've been buying a lot. The troubling thing with this microgrill set is that they don't have it anymore, so you can't ask questions about it or get to any of the recipes they had on-line. I've used it a couple of times and I like it. I've cooked eggs and bratwurst in it with good results. The information they have in their recipe book for cooking times is off on some things. Here's how to cook bratwurst in the grill pan.

I cooked two bratwurst, about 4 ounces total. These were not frozen when I cooked them. First, I preheated the grill pan and the top press for the time indicated in the book. I should mention that I'm using a 1200 watt microwave oven. I then put the bratwurst in the grill pan and put the press part on top of the bratwurst. I microwaved it for a total of 9 minutes. The wurst were fully cooked and tasted delicious. The weren't really juicy, which I like because the juice just causes a mess. As far as I could tell, most of the fat was microwaved off the bratwurst. I'll definitely do this again as I don't have a grill and only cook for one.
