PREPARATION
- 1Peel the vegetables and cut them into equal-sized, elongated pieces.
- 2Place the vegetables with three-quarters of the butter and 2 dl of stock or water in a pot on the stove and steam them over low heat, covered.
- 3Season the vegetables with salt, fresh herbs, and a few drops of lemon juice; if desired, a pinch of sugar can also be added.

KIFLI TIP
- 1This method of preparation is very beneficial for root vegetables. It's worth experimenting with, as all their flavors remain in the cooking liquid, preventing any loss of flavor.
- 2The amount of cooking liquid needs to be just right; if there's too little, it's easy to replenish. If there's too much left at the end, but the vegetables are already tender, remove them and boil the liquid over high heat until it thickens slightly.
