following rule of thumb:
Double the amount = double the time
Half the amount
Select a shorter cooking time or lower microwave
setting. Add more liquid and cover the food.
Select a longer cooking time and a higher microwave
setting than is specified. Large amounts of food will
take longer to cook. Take into consideration the depth
of the food, as deep" food will also take longer.
Stir the food from time to time and select a lower heat
setting and longer duration next time.
