  • for foil packets use 2-3 layers of plenty of heavy-duty/catering foil and consider spray with non-stick spray or spread of butter
  • rotate every 10min, should sizzle softly - small cut veges and meats including salmon may take 40 minutes depending upon size and the temp of the embers (on a gas BBQ aim for 220degC)

• rice and steamed vegetables, dim sims or meats
  • short grain rice such as basmati or jasmine takes 12-15min to cook with a 1 cup rice:1.5 cups water ratio, and you do not want to be removing the lid and letting out the steam in this time, so you will need foods that will take about 15 min to cook as well (you will also be leaving the rice off the heat but with lid on for a further 10 minutes) such as:
    • carrots (small or quartered) take 10-15 minutes
    • beets take 15 to 30+ minutes so will need to be cut small
    • cauliflower heads with core removed take around 15 to 20 minutes
    • leeks take about 10 to 15 minutes to steam
    • corn on the cob usually steams in 10 to 15 minutes
    • butternut pumpkin cubed requires 12 to 15 minutes
    • turnips sliced 1/4 thick
    • thawed dim sims take 15 minutes (see below - thaw them by placing frozen ones in the fridge for 8-12 hours and use within 24hrs)
    • most fish fillets (such as salmon, white fish, or trout) and smaller whole fish steam in 8–15 minutes depending on thickness - but may add unwanted flavour to the rice
    • fresh or frozen lobster tails take about 15 minutes to steam
    • boneless chicken breast steams in 15minutes
    • 1cm thick pork fillet steams in 15minutes
    • custard steamed eggs take 10-15 minutes eg. Chinese style “custard” - beaten eggs mixed with warm water (1 part eggs:1.5-2 parts water), salt and steamed in a bowl until it becomes a smooth custard and add topping or soy sauce
    • halved nectarines take 15 minutes
    • stuffed foods such as eggplant stuffed with pork and shrimp steam in 15 minutes (after initial pan frying)
• other steamed vegetables
  • green beans, broccoli, asparagus, and leafy greens generally take 3 to 10 minutes
  • potatoes (small or quartered) take 10-15 minutes
  • sweet potatoes cut into 1-inch pieces require 12 to 15 minutes
• frozen Marathon dim sims for steaming
  • add enough water to avoid boiling dry eg. 250mL
  • ensure the dim sims will not be sitting in the water
  • lightly oil the steamer plate
  • add dim sims
  • place lid tightly on billy and cover up any spout to reduce steam escaping
  • frozen dim sims take 20 minutes after the water has started boiling
  • thawed dim sims take 15 minutes after the water has started boiling
  • internal temperature should be 80-100degC and should be hot and steaming all the way through, with the wrapper appearing glossy and slightly translucent and the filling should be piping hot
  • cut a dim sim in half - the inside should be steaming hot with no cold spots, and the filling should look fully cooked (not pink or raw)
• boiled eggs
  • place eggs in billy can with adequate water to cover them, bring to boil then simmer for 4 minutes, rest for 10-20secs for runny yolk, longer for firm yolk
• poached eggs
  • bring water in billy can to boil
  • crack eggs directly into billy can and simmer until you are happy
• steamed poached eggs
  • crack each egg into a small bowl with a little water
  • place bowl into steamer
  • cover and steam for 5-7 minutes for runny yolk, 8 minutes for a firmer yolk
