French term or phrase: cuit vapeur
Recipe for institutional catering professionals
Target = uk

40g de blanc de volaille
10g de cuit vapeur
20g courgettes
65g de carottes
...

I've never seen this before. I sounds like it's something similar to a bouillon, but what is the right term?
The other possibility is that a word is missing. Any ideas?
