Break the spaghetti and put it in a bowl. Get enough spaghetti you want to cook. Break the noodles in two or three and place in a microwave-safe bowl. [1] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/e/e5/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-2.jpg/v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in- the-Microwave-Step-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/e/e5/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:485,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Pour enough water into the bowl to cover the noodles by about 5cm. You can use room temperature water or just turn off the faucet to let the water flow into the bowl. It is important that the noodles are completely submerged in the water. [2] X Research Source
- Noodles will double or triple in size when cooked, that’s why you need to pour water to cover the noodles.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/db/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-3.jpg/v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in- the-Microwave-Step-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/db/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-3.jpg/ v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:485,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Cook noodles in the microwave for 3 minutes longer than directed on the package. Put the bowl of noodles in the microwave and read the directions on the package. Set the cooking time 3 minutes longer than recommended on the package. [3] X Research Sources
- For example, if the package says to boil noodles for 9 minutes, you will have to microwave them for 12 minutes.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/8a/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-4.jpg/v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in- the-Microwave-Step-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/8a/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-4.jpg/ v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:485,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Drain the water and use the cooked noodles. Carefully remove the hot bowl of noodles from the microwave. Place the basket in the sink and slowly pour the noodles into the basket so that the water runs down the sink. You can then drizzle your favorite sauce over the cooked noodles. [4] X Research Sources
- Store leftover cooked noodles in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3-5 days.
Cook noodles with boiling water
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/5/59/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-5.jpg/v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in- the-Microwave-Step-5.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/5/59/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-5.jpg/ v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-5.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:485,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Break the dry spaghetti and put it in a bowl. Take 300 g of uncooked spaghetti and break it in three. Noodles must be neatly placed in a microwaveable bowl without sticking out. [5] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/46/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-6.jpg/v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in- the-Microwave-Step-6.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/46/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-6.jpg/ v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-6.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:485,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Coat the noodles with oil and pour in boiling water. Drizzle 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of vegetable oil over the dry noodles and mix until the oil coats all the noodles, then pour boiling water over the noodles by at least 5 cm. [6] X Research Source
- Mix noodles with cooking oil to prevent noodles from sticking together when cooking in the microwave.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/b/b9/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-7.jpg/v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in- the-Microwave-Step-7.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/b/b9/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-7.jpg/ v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-7.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:485,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Microwave spaghetti for 8 minutes. Cover the bowl with a lid or cover the bowl with cling film. Place the bowl of noodles in the microwave and cook on highest power for 8 minutes. Stop cooking and stir the noodles after half the time has elapsed. [7] X Research Sources
- Be careful when tossing the noodles, as the bowl of noodles will be very hot.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/9f/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-8.jpg/v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in- the-Microwave-Step-8.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/9/9f/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-8.jpg/ v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-8.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:485,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Remove the spaghetti and let it sit for 2 minutes. After the spaghetti has ‘rested’ for a few minutes, taste it to see if it’s ok. If the noodles are stiff for your taste, put them back in the microwave and cook for another 2 minutes. [8] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/31/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-9.jpg/v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in- the-Microwave-Step-9.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/3/31/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-9.jpg/ v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-9.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:485,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Drain and serve spaghetti with sauce. Place the basket in the sink and slowly pour the cooked noodles into the basket. Hot water will run down the sink. Now you can serve spaghetti with your chosen sauce.
- To store leftover spaghetti, place it in an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3-5 days.
Heat canned sauce in the microwave
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/e/e2/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-10.jpg/v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in- the-Microwave-Step-10.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/e/e2/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-10.jpg/ v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-10.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:485,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Pour the pasta sauce into a large bowl. Choose a bowl that’s microwaveable and big enough to keep the sauce from splashing out. If you want to prepare a smaller portion, simply pour enough sauce into the bowl. [9] X Research Source
Tip: You can choose whatever sauce you like, from marinara sauce to alfredo sauce!
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/40/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-11.jpg/v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in- the-Microwave-Step-11.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/4/40/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-11.jpg/ v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-11.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:485,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Heat the sauce in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time. Place the bowl of noodle sauce in the microwave and heat on LOW power to warm up the sauce. Pause and stir the sauce every 30 seconds while warming. [10] X Research Source
- Remember that a whole jar of noodle sauce needs to cook for 2-3 minutes to get hot, but a serving may take as little as 1 minute.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/b/b6/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-12.jpg/v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in- the-Microwave-Step-12.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/b/b6/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-12.jpg/ v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-12.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:485,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}

{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/dc/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-13.jpg/v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in- the-Microwave-Step-13.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/dc/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-13.jpg/ v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-13.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:485,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Chop 1 onion, 1 carrot and mince 1 garlic clove. Peel and place the onion and garlic on a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to cut the onion into pieces about 1.3 cm and mince a clove of garlic. Cut pea-sized carrots and put them all in a large microwave-safe bowl. [12] X Research Source
- If you don’t have time, you can buy pre-cut packages of onions and carrots.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/3e/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-14.jpg/v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in- the-Microwave-Step-14.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/3/3e/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-14.jpg/ v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-14.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:485,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Mix 300 g of lean ground beef with vegetables in a bowl. Mix the meat with chopped vegetables, mix and mince the meat. This way the beef will cook evenly. [13] X Research Source
Do you know?

Cover bowl and microwave for 3 minutes. Cover the mouth of the bowl with plastic wrap, then make a gap of about 5 cm in the wrapper to let the steam escape. Heat a bowl of meat and vegetables for 3 minutes on high power. [14] X Research Source
- If you don’t want to use cling film and a bowl with a lid, you can put the lid on the bowl and leave it a little open to let the steam out.
- Be careful when handling the sauce bowl as it will be very hot.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/0/0a/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-16.jpg/v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in- the-Microwave-Step-16.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/0/0a/Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-16.jpg/ v4-728px-Cook-Spaghetti-in-the-Microwave-Step-16.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:306,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:485,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Microwave the meat mixture for another 3 minutes. With the bowl still covered, cook until the meat is no longer pink. To make sure the meat is cooked through, you can use a food thermometer to prick the center of the meat. Cooked meat must reach 71 degrees Celsius . [15] X Research Source
- If the meat is still slightly pink or has not reached 71 degrees Celsius, cover and continue cooking for more than 1 minute before checking again.
- Skim off any visible fat from the bowl when the meat is cooked.
