If boiled or canned, the vitamins are diminished. Proper steaming of your vegetables leaves the vitamins and minerals intact, while also saving your tummy lots of trouble. It's delicious, too! Multiply this recipe by the number of adult servings you need...it's that easy! :) You can use any variety of vegetables in season, or not...even frozen vegetables. One cup [cooked weight] is one serving.

Keep these easy flavoured butter recipes handy to perk up your favourite greens and veggies

Total Time 20 minutes

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 pinch cumin seeds
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves picked
60 g unsalted butter softened
450 g carrots cut into thick strips
½ tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
3 anchovy fillets finely chopped
60 g unsalted butter softened
350 g broccoli cut into florets
½ lemon finely grated zest of, plus 1 tablespoon of juice
60 g unsalted butter softened
350 g mangetout trimmed
1 clove garlic chopped
½ red chilli deseeded and finely chopped
2 sun-dried tomatoes in oil drained and finely chopped
60 g unsalted butter softened
500 g baby turnips quartered if large
1 pinch sugar
¼ orange finely grated zest of

Steps:

    1. Steaming is a great way to cook veg. It keeps in so many of the vitamins lost by boiling, and can be done in stacked steamer baskets. Best of all, though, it only takes up one ring of your cooker!
    2. The butters are easy to make and can be done way ahead. Keep any leftovers in your freezer and use a slice when you cook a steak. Don’t cook all the vegetables or you’ll have far too many – just pick your two favourites.
    3. Make the flavoured butters. If you are making the turnips, pound the garlic, chilli and sun-dried tomatoes to a paste in a pestle and mortar. Add seasoning and the butter and pound well. Dollop onto a sheet of greaseproof paper and roll into a cylinder, twisting the ends like Christmas crackers. Place in the freezer to firm up.
    4. For the carrots, pound the sugar, zest, cumin seeds and thyme; for the broccoli, the rosemary and anchovies; for the mangetout, mix the lemon juice and zest. Then add the seasoning and butter, pound and roll into Christmas cracker shapes, as before.
    5. Put the veg in a 2-layer steamer. Carrots should be nearest to the heat, then baby turnips, then broccoli florets, then mangetout. Steam for 10 minutes and serve each vegetable with circles of flavoured butter melted over the top.
