Step 1

Pour some water into the dish and add lemon juice along with the squeezed lemon slices.

Step 2

Microwave the mixture for three minutes.

Step 3

Let the citrusy solution sit in the microwave for another five minutes to work its magic.

Step 4

Be careful when removing the bowl, as it will be very hot.

The steam from microwaving the water and lemon mixture, combined with the natural cleaning properties of the lemon, is what makes this method so effective.
