COOKING GUIDE FOR FRESH VEGETABLES
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 after cook-
ing.
Add salt, herbs or butter after cooking. Cover during the 3 minute standing time.
Hint : Cut fresh vegetables into even sized pieces. The smaller they are cut the quicker
they are cooked.
