Two-Tone Carrot and Green Bean Flans
A striped starter built from two vegetable purees, each bound with a little bechamel, parmesan and egg before steaming. The Micro Urban cooks the vegetables and then the filled ramekins in the same steamer, so the whole dish needs one appliance from start to finish.

Ingredients
Method
Top and tail the green beans and slice the peeled carrots on a mandoline slicer.
Put the carrot slices in the large basket of the Tupperware Micro Urban and the beans in the lower basket.
Pour 400 ml (14 fl oz) cold water into the base with the crumbled stock cube, stack the baskets, close and steam for about 15 minutes at 900 W.
Blend the green beans with 50 ml (10 tsp) cooking water, half the bechamel and the parmesan; season and whisk in one egg. Repeat with the carrots in a separate bowl.
Lightly butter 8 small ramekins and layer in the carrot cream, then the green bean cream.
Refill the clean base with 400 ml (14 fl oz) cold water, set the ramekins uncovered in the large basket, close and steam for about 14 minutes at 900 W.
Rest for 5 minutes, then unmould gently and serve warm, plain or with a tomato sauce or pesto.
