Forum Steaming Vegetables

My daughter loves corn so this was a welcome healthier alternative to the butter covered version we normally do on the BBQ. 

I really like the idea of doing them in the basket!I saw these instructions on the UK site, in case it's of use to anyone, however the varoma didn't close tightly but the corn looked good (I didn't eat any, I don't do grains at the moment)

Succulent Steamed Sweetcorn

The first time we steamed sweetcorn cobs in the Varoma, we all decided we'd never cook them any other way again! Serves 1 to 6 with one cob each.

Ingredients1 full size cob fresh sweetcorn per person, up to 6 maximum500 g waterMethod1. Weigh water into TM bowl, place up to 3 cobs sweetcorn in the Varoma and up to 3 cobs on the Varoma tray. Steam 12 minutes/Varoma Temperature/Speed 2. Eat straight away, with butter and salt if desired.

Thanks for this post. I have just tried salmon in the varoma dish, veggies on the varoma tray and corn cob in the basket.  Varoma temp, 20 mins, speed 3-4. Turned out beautifully. Such a healthy, quick and easy meal.

Hi jarossn,

I do corn on the cob successfully by putting it in the basket in the  and the other vegies in the Varoma bowl and tray.
