Nutritional values

On the first cold autumn days, the light stew not only warms you up well, it also brings vitamin C and beta-carotene into our body for defence and cell protection. From the complex of B vitamins, B1, B6 and niacin serve the metabolism and are beneficial for concentration as well as for nerves and mucous membranes.

Also delicious with broccoli instead of cauliflower. Both score with lots of vitamin C - the green florets also contain an extra portion of calcium for bones and teeth.
