My steamer instuctions say 40-45 minutes, though I generally do them for 50 minutes to be sure they're soft where it counts. They'll be bloody hot when they come out though, so they have to sit for a bit to cool before eating (that's the bit I find the hardest!) This is ok if you have one of those electric steamers with a timer, as you can set it off and go and do something else while it cooks. My mum used to boil them for at least 40 minutes, but there you probably have to have half an eye on your hob. I'm a very lazy cook - so you can see how I favour extreme faff-free cooking, even for rogue vegetable matter!
