Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.
  • Blending hot liquid. Let it cool a little first, fill the blender no more than a third, and hold the lid down with a folded towel. Start on the lowest speed. A stick blender in the pan is safer.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. Melt butter in saucepan; add onions and cook until golden-brown. Add zucchini and the tomatoes. Season well, then let the vegetables cook (covered) over a low heat until soft - about 20 to 30 minutes. Meanwhile, add boiling water to rice, bring to boil on stove, reduce heat to barest simmer and cook, covered, for 20 minutes or until all liquid is absorbed and rice is tender. Puree vegetables (the easiest way to do this is to mix them with the stock and use a blender - they may be pushed through a sieve if you dont have a blender - I use my Bamix). Pour the vegetable puree back into the pan and stir in the Worcestershire sauce and curry powder. Reheat gently, cook for about 5 minutes more, then serve with croutons sprinkled in each bowl.
