    It doesn’t cook outside in or inside out but both get the same amount of power. Problem is that microwave doesn’t do it evenly and lower power allows the heat to spread more evenly instead of couple auper heated spots drying while some parta are still cold. Rotating plate is a hack to try spread the radiation more evenly but doesn’t work too well.

      Smaller masses help. Say for mashed potatoes, make essentially a ring on the plate as opposed to a big lump

        While good in theory, in reality I never eat so little that I could possibly do that.
