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.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).
