1 cup broccoli florets
1 cup cauliflower florets
1 cup carrots, sliced (use the Saladmaster Food Processor for uniform slices)
1 cup zucchini, sliced
1 red bell pepper, julienned
½ cup onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh herbs (parsley, thyme, or basil – optional)
Lemon wedges (for serving)
Preheat the Saladmaster pan or electric skillet:
Set the skillet or cookware over medium heat. Add no oil or water. Let it preheat until water droplets skitter on the surface (water bead test).
Add the vegetables:
Layer the vegetables in the pan starting with the ones that take longer to cook (e.g., carrots and cauliflower on the bottom, broccoli, then softer ones like zucchini and bell peppers on top).
Cover and cook:
Place the lid on the pan. Within a few minutes, the Vapo-Valve™ will click. Once it does, reduce the heat to low and let the vegetables cook for about 10–15 minutes.
Do not lift the lid—the semi-vacuum seal keeps the nutrients in.
Check and season:
After 10–15 minutes, remove the lid. The vegetables should be tender but still vibrant and crisp.
Add salt, pepper, and fresh herbs to taste. Toss gently.
Serve:
Serve warm with a squeeze of lemon for added brightness. Perfect as a side dish or on top of quinoa, rice, or pasta.
Mediterranean: Include olives and feta cheese for a bold flavor twist.
