Steamer recipes
4 recipes
4 recipes sit under Steamer recipes, and every one of them is scored against what is actually in your fridge before it is shown. The quickest is Steamed Ginger Chicken at 40 minutes; the longest, Homemade Chicken Nuggets, takes 60.
None of these need an oven, an air fryer, or a microwave — a stove and a pan is enough. 2 are vegetarian. 4 have no chili at all, so they work for children.
These recipes lean most often on Chicken egg, Chicken breast, White bread and Milk — if you have one or two of those as well, more of this list becomes cookable tonight rather than after a shopping trip. Add what you have to your fridge and the recipes reorder themselves around it, with anything missing collected into a shopping list.
Homemade Chicken Nuggets
Steamed first, then fried. Freezes for a month and saves you on hectic mornings.

Steamed Banana Cake
No oven, and moister for it. Wrap the steamer lid in a cloth so condensation never drips onto the batter.

Bread and Milk Pudding
The best way to finish bread going stale. Fresh bread actually makes a soggier pudding.

Steamed Ginger Chicken
No oil at all, and the chicken comes out remarkably tender. The liquid that collects while steaming is the sauce — do not throw it away.
