Colman’s Season & Steam: Garden Herb Potatoes and Mediterranean Vegetables

A perfect family meal isn’t complete without a delicious side of vegetables – especially when they’re steamed to lock in the flavour and goodness.

That’s why Colman’s put their heads together to rustle up Season & Steam – a new range of quick and easy steam bags, with blends of herbs that will complement your veggies perfectly!

The new range of Season & Steam products is the quick and easy way to add a burst of flavour to your vegetable side dishes.

Garden Herb Potatoes:

It was very quick and easy to make tasty potatoes, you only need to add 500g baby new potatoes and 100ml of water to one sachet of Season & Steam Garden Herb Potatoes.

Method:

1. Make it: Tear open top of the pack, remove and unfold bag and place on a microwavable plate. Cut potatoes in half (2.5cm approximately) and place into the bag. Add powder from the bottom sachet and pour in the water.

2. 

   Season it: Tie bag with the blue tie along the blue line. Gently coat the potatoes with the seasoning mix, avoiding air vents on both sides. Ensure bag is upright on the plate and the potatoes are evenly spaced.

3. Steam it: Microwave in full power for 9.5 minutes (900W), 12 minutes (700W). Leave to stand for 1 minute. Remove using oven gloves, check potatoes are fully cooked. Cut open bag, place into serving dish and enjoy!

Mediterranean Vegetables:

It is also simple to give a delicious, balanced flavour to daily vegetables. The recipe recommends adding 150g sliced courgette, 130g quartered tomatoes and 120g diced yellow pepper to one sachet of Colman’s Season & Steam Mediterranean Vegetables.

Unfortunately I didn’t have enough tomatoes in the fridge and no yellow peppers left, so I used one courgette, two small onions, one small tomato, one red pepper and two small green peppers instead.

Method:

1. Make it: Same as above apart from adding water. This recipe doesn’t need any water.
2. Season it: Same as above
3. Steam it: Same as above, however microwave it for 5.5 minutes (900W) or 7 minutes (700W).

The Mediterranean Vegetables were lovely and full of flavour.

The whole family enjoyed the potatoes. It was my first time making potatoes in the microwave and they taste just as nice as oven potatoes. We really enjoyed the Garden Herb Potatoes!

Overall, we really liked both flavours, they are quick and easy to use, perfect for busy parents that want to add herbs and spices to make tasty dishes.

Colman’s Season & Steam is available in four exciting flavours.

We look forward to trying the other flavours from the Season & Steam range.
