Cooking Guide (continued)
Cooking Guide for fresh vegetables
Use a suitable 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 (900W).
Cooking Guide for rice and pasta
Rice: Use a large pyrex bowl with lid – rice doubles in volume during
cooking. Cook covered.
After the cooking time is over, stir before standing time and salt or
add herbs and butter.
Remark: the rice may not have absorbed all water after the cooking
time is finished.
Pasta: Use a large pyrex bowl. Add boiling water, a pinch of salt and stir
well. Cook uncovered.
Stir occasionally during and after cooking. Cover during standing
time and drain thoroughly afterwards.
