Microwave Reheating Roast Potatoes

paul said:

Hi,

I have some leftover Roast Potatoes, not whole, each
potato is roughly quartered. I tried reheating some in the
microwave last night and they came out quite tough. Does
any one have any tips on reheating them?

I would reheat them on a metal tray in the oven.

Do you have a little toaster-oven? That's the perfect tool
for the job, IMO, because you don't have to heat up your
whole oven in order to just warm up a bit of leftovers.

A convection-microwave oven would also work, but if you had
one of those you'd probably know that.

How long did you microwave the potatoes for? I use my
microwave to warm up potatoes and its never been a problem.
I just nuke for a minute or two on the medium setting. Then
I turn the potatoes all around and nuke on medium power for
another 20 or 30 seconds. You probably cooked the potatoes
at too high power or for too long a period of time, or both.

Hi,

I microwaved them for about 1.5mins, but i was using full
power. When you microwave yours do you add any liquid? and
also do you cover them with cling wrap?

Thanks, Paul
