Morphy Richards Mico Microwave Toastie Sandwich Maker and Grill, Silicone Microwaveable Cookware, Non-stick Coating, Heatwave Technology, Orange, 511644

Product Information

It comes with detailed instructions and heats up quickly, plus it has a high hinge so you can make deep-filled toasties. Some have waffle plates, others have flat plates and grill plates for toasted sandwiches, some even open up flat for table-top grilling. But there’s something about the combination of hot metal plates and bread that takes sandwich making to the next level, and this is where sandwich toasters and toastie makers come in. Instructions are given for making a cheese and ham toastie in a 900W microwave to achieve light, medium and dark browning.

Many of the sandwich toasters and toastie makers we tested come with different plates for different tasks, such as grilling plates, waffle plates, and even flat plancha-style plates. Despite the misleading name, it actually makes two sandwiches at a time, making it ideal for a small family. It’s very quick to heat up, taking just two and a half minutes to do so (the manual said it’d take five minutes).Preparing fresh food has never been so easy - with the Mico Toastie (V2), you can toast a range of food in minutes without a traditional sandwich toaster or grill. There’s a lot to be said for the humble sandwich; it can serve as a simple snack or dressed up and elevated to become a full meal. It takes about five minutes and is sort of like grilling a sandwich in a frying pan: the bread crisps up and clean-up is simple (the Mico Toastie is dishwasher safe), but it’s just not quite the real deal. This is a classic George Foreman grill; it has a floating hinge and slanted plates with a non-stick coating.

The exterior of the sandwich plates are fully encased in removable silicone grips which fasten together for use, and give soft-touch access for when handling the Toastie. Once you’re done, disassemble the gadget and throw the metal plates and silicone covers in the dishwasher. Two methods tied for first place: a) the Mico Potato; and b) microwaving potatoes for five minutes, then crisping them up in the oven for 15 minutes at 200°C.Readers of Friday Favourites are either going to see the MICO Toastie v2 as the greatest gadget I’ve ever shared, or will be scratching their head at why I’m excited about it. When microwaving, you will need to stay close as the toastie needs to be turned two and half minutes into cooking. There are silicone clips that secure the plates around your sandwich, they also stretch, allowing a little extra room for generously filled toasties.

The plates aren’t removable, which is disappointing, but the non-stick coating is effective, so clean up is a doddle. We tested a range of sandwich toasters and toastie makers and used them to make a simple cheese toastie, a deep filled toastie, a filled panini, and if a model came with waffle plates, we made BBC Good Food’s plain waffles, too. Much smaller and easier to use than a traditional toasted sandwich maker, our Mico Toastie helps you get the most out of your microwave by toasting everything from ham and cheese toasties to the perfect panini.

There’s a large surface area to play with and we found we could comfortably fit 4 sandwiches on the grill at once. We noticed that the toasties cooked on the front two plates were better browned than those at the back and they took a long time to cook. That being said, if you’re a feeding several hungry mouths and like to make a couple at a time, this may not be the model for you. Rethink how you use a microwave, for greattasting food that is quick and doesn’t compromise on quality… think Mico!

so long as the bread is a standard-size square, you can “toast” a sandwich in the microwave using the Mico Toastie. The silicone grips utilise cutting-edge Heatwave technology, transforming your microwave into a conventional cooker and getting lunch ready in minutes. Like a couple of other models on the list, we found the toastie plates a bit too large for standard supermarket bread.If you have concerns about cooking using a 'shared' appliance at the office, the Mico Toastie is the solution you've been looking for! But we did find that this model browns bread a little unevenly, though this was our only aesthetic qualm.
