Very simple but a treat if you use only fresh tender spring vegetables. Vegetables stew in their juice. Very little or no water required. No wine.
This simple recipe can be adapted for speed cooking by using pre-prepared or frozen vegetables. We prefer fresh, but frozen vegetables are better than no vegetables. |

| Cooking Tips |
| Ham or bacon can be used; just saute before the onion. Two slices of Serrano cut into stripes add a nice touch. As do the herd boiled egg quarters for garnish. |

| Speed cooking sauce? Mix 1 tsp cornstarch with 1 cup water. Microwave for 1 minute at High. Add to the pan after carrots and artichoke hearts. Finish cooking as explained. |
