How to bake pork in the microwave? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. To bake meat, you need a microwave oven with the Grill function. A regular microwave wouldn't work. The original recipe uses a special microwave dish to bake meat in the microwave. I don't have it, so I baked pork on a special grill. I took 500 grams of meat (ham), since my microwave is not too large.

Rinse the meat, dry with a paper or other towel and make several cuts on it so that excess fat comes out when baking.

Grate the pork with salt and pepper. Any other spices may also be used.

If you use a special microwave dish, preheat it for two minutes. When using a grill, put pork on it and put it in the microwave. I added a plate under the grill to allow fat from the meat to flow into it. Set the microwave to "Grill + microwave" mode for 12 minutes. There are two such modes on my microwave. I chose one where more power goes to the grill (36% microwave, 64% grill).

After the time has elapsed, turn the meat over and cook for another 12 minutes on the same mode.

Check the meat for readiness. Cut with a knife in the thickest place. If a transparent liquid oozes from it, then the meat is ready. If the liquid is pinkish, then bake the meat in the microwave again. You can set the Grill mode starting at 3-5 minutes.

Let the finished meat stand before cutting for 10 minutes so that the juices inside the meat are distributed and the meat remains juicy. Enjoy your meal!
