Hotpoint 6685X manual Cooking Side Dishes and Vegetables, None

4.5 - COOKING SIDE DISHES AND VEGETABLES

Vegetables cooked in a microwave oven preserve their colour and nutritional value better than in traditional cooking. Wash and peel the vegetables before starting to cook.

Larger vegetables should be cut into evenly-sized pieces.

Add approx. 5 spoonfuls of water for every 500g of vegetables (vegetables which have a high fibre content require more water). The vegetables should always be covered with transparent film.

Stir at least once halfway through cooking and add a little salt only at the end.

Warning: the cooking times in the table are purely intended as guidelines and are on the basis of the food’s weight and initial temperature as well as its texture and structure.
