4.5 - COOKING SIDE DISHES AND VEGETABLES
Vegetables cooked in a microwave oven preserve their colour and nutritional value better than in traditional cooking.
Wash and peel the vegetables before starting to cook.
Larger vegetables should be cut into evenly-sized pieces.
Add approx. 5 spoonfuls of water for every 500g of vegetables (vegetables which have a high fibre content require more water).
The vegetables should always be covered with transparent film.
Stir at least once halfway through cooking and add a little salt only at the end.
Warning: the cooking times in the table are purely intended as guidelines and are on the basis of the food’s weight and initial tem-
perature as well as its texture and structure.
*
These indications are suitable for performing the cooking test according to Regulation 60705, Para. 12.3.4.
Further information, including on other performance tests according to Regulation 60705, is given in the
table on page 2.
