Chef’s Tip
Use frozen broad beans if they aren’t in season.
The foundation to this sauce is a great way to cook many combinations of vegetables, use a mixture of whatever is in season and remember to add green vegetables in the last 5 minutes of steaming time.
The salmon can be replaced with ocean trout.

2 tablespoons of rice wine

Preheat the oven to 96°C on the Full Steam function. In a small ovenproof pan with a lid, prepare the rice to the instructions in the steam table on pages 6-9.

Add all the ingredients from the onion to the olives to another ovenproof pan with a lid and bring to the boil on a cooktop.

When the timer sounds, add the beans, asparagus and zucchini to the other vegetables, replace the lid and cook for a further 5 minutes.

Remove the vegetables and rice until ready to serve.
