@thatcuisine: Easiest way of steaming veggies Steps Add a few centimetres of water to a pot and bring it to a gentle simmer. Set a steaming basket in the pot, making sure the water doesn’t touch the basket. Arrange the vegetables: place slower-cooking pieces on the bottom and quicker-cooking ones on top (e.g., carrots/potatoes stems below; capsicum/leafy greens above). Cover and steam over low heat for 12–15 minutes, until just tender. Serve hot, sprinkled with salt and pepper (optional: a squeeze of lemon or a drizzle of olive oil). Tip: Cut veggies to similar sizes so they cook evenly, and don’t let the pot boil hard—gentle steam = better texture. #steamedvegetables #steamedveggies #healthyrecipes
