salt or add herbs and butter.
Remark: the rice may not have absorbed all water after the
cooking time is finished.

salt and stir well. Cook uncovered.

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

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