We all love to eat, right? But cooking does not always have the time, and in the mornings we often swallow a couple of sandwiches with not quite useful sausage and run to work. For the simple reason that morning, we can not long stand at the stove to cook something that is not too harmful for the stomach.
That's where we can and come to the aid appliance? I was a little doubt in the acquisition of this miracle technology, and all around in one voice assured me that it will take a week or two and that unit will be useless to gather dust in my kitchen. But I still took a risk and bought a steamer, after having thoroughly studied the Internet for the best model. And I do not regret!
I completely solved the problem of the breakfast: the night wondering what I will cook in the morning, and barely woke up, packed products in the appliance, turn the timer and go quietly into the shower - in fact nothing prigorit, not run away and not digested! Even when the timer turns off, the food remains hot for a long time.
And now tell you in detail about some of the dishes that I cook for a couple, dividing them into two categories - breakfast and dinner.
Breakfast
Soft-boiled eggs. Do not believe it, but very convenient in steamer to boil eggs. Do not wait until the water boils, do not need to note the time - and it always as expected! Depending on the cooking appliance are different, and it is written in the enclosed instructions. Experiments I found that hard-boiled eggs are obtained for 12 minutes, boiled - 7. True, they should be immediately removed from the steamers, or they digest, so this dish I cook until I make coffee.
Omelette. Mix 3-4 eggs with a half a glass of milk, salt, pepper, dried herbs and pour this mixture in a glass of frozen vegetables, buried in a container of rice. By the way, the capacity for rice - an ordinary plastic bowl, except for her, I use any plastic dishes for microwave ovens - turns out great! The most delicious omelet obtained with corn and green peas, and you can top with grated cheese. Prepare all of 20 minutes.
Oatmeal. I know all about the benefits of oatmeal. But it is not love! And that only I have not tried to add to it - to eat this mess, I did not want. But as it turns out in the steamer - it's just something! Her cooking is very simple: a glass of oatmeal - the same amount of milk, water and grains of frozen corn, a pinch of salt. Everything in the bowl for the rice and stir. 40-50 minutes - and very tasty porridge is ready. Now this is my favorite breakfast!
Congee. This dish, too, was not one of my favorite - before his meeting with the appliance. Now I often cook it - delicious, sweet breakfast provided! For that magma I poured into a container of rice to 2 / 3 cup kruglozernistogo rice, pour two glasses of milk (or in half with water), add sugar to taste and a little vanilla. Prepared pap about an hour, but 30-40 minutes later it was better to mix and top up with water in the steamer.
Rice with vegetables. A cup of rice lying, 1.5 cups of boiling water, add spices and frozen vegetables: peas, beans, sweet peppers. You can add those vegetables that you like. After 40 minutes take out of the steamers, mix, add diced ham and feta cheese and put another 10 minutes. Sausage and cheese add optional, but so much more tasty.
