Instructions
- Place one tablespoon of water in the bottom of your steamer basket.
- Using a vegetable knife slice the zucchini into medium slices. If it needs it, give your zucchini a wash with your colander. Then add to the steamer basket.
- Add your seasonings reserving half of the oregano for later and mix with your hands for an even coating.
- Place the lid on the steamer and then place in the microwave.
- Microwave for 4 minutes. Shake and then microwave for a further 2 minutes.
- Remove the lid, allow the steam to release, and do a fork test to make sure the zucchini is fork tender.
- Then transfer to a serving dish that will fit in your microwave. Sprinkle with the last of the oregano and cover with grated parmesan cheese. Microwave for 2 further minutes before serving.
Notes
- Steam – Note there is a lot of steam, so allow the steam to go before pouring into a dish. Also make sure the lid is secure on the steamer basket as my daughter noticed mine was not on tight and adjusted it for me.
