Badly burnt Bread Rolls

However hard we try, sometimes we may not get an alternative for a pan filled with hot cooking oil. A Foodie like me will cannot resist a hot and peppery dishes soaked in oil.. But where there is a will, there is a microwave!!
This weekend, I was once again urged to experiment more on healthy way of cooking oil soaked delicacy. Word ‘Bread roll’ kept hitting my ear and taste buds, so i finally made up my mind to go for it.
There are certain things which these cookery books
don't state is the easier way of cooking vegetable. Just cut finely vegetables like carrot or even onions and microwave them @ 100% for a minute or so. Same goes for vegetables like green peas or corn too but a cauliflower may take a little longer… So, i microwaved finely cut chillies, carrot peas for a minute so that they do not remain raw. The same was done for ginger n garlic paste, lil cumin seeds, red chilly powder and turmeric powder. Little oil should be added in this spices and should be microwaved for 30 secs so they are properly cooked and also don't get burnt.
Once the rolls were ready, i started grilling them after coating up with little oil. But the grilling doesnt work out evenly on every part of roll and one needs to roll them up
continuously. After cooking them up for about 15 mins, some part was nicely cooked, some part remained raw and some was burnt!!!
So, I thought of using convection mode as we do for pizza but that didnt go well either as i guess we were using a flat dish for keeping rolls and not rack.
So, my experiment for a perfect bread roll still continues… if anyone has a better idea, please suggest.
