Cooking Guide for fresh vegetables

GB

Use a suitable glass pyrex bowl with lid. Add 30-45 ml cold water (2-3 tbsp.) for every

 

 

250 g unless another water quantity is recommended - see table. Cook covered for

 

the minimum time - see table. Continue cooking to get the result you prefer. Stir once

 

during and once after cooking. Add salt, herbs or butter after cooking.

 

Cover during a standing time of 3 minutes.

 

 

Hint: Cut the fresh vegetables into even sized pieces. The smaller they are cut, the

 

quicker they will cook.

 

 

 

All fresh vegetables should be cooked using full microwave power (900 W).
