As many readers know, I love broccoli. I mean, I seriously love broccoli.
I've had this veggie prepared in endless ways, but Older Daughter introduced me to a method of roasting it which has become my new favorite recipe.
It starts with cutting up the heads...
...until you have enough for the meal's requirement.
To this, add olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, Panko bread crumbs, and Parmesan cheese (shredded, not grated).
Add these ingredients in whatever proportions you prefer, and mix thoroughly.
Then spread the veggies on a baking sheet. Some of the mixture will have sifted to the bottom of the bowl, so spoon this over the top of the broccoli.
This particular baking sheet belongs to our toaster oven, which I use for roasting.
Set the temperature to 400F for 20 minutes.
And voilà: The best roasted broccoli I've ever had.
Bon appétit!
But isnt that only one serving?

Patrice,
ReplyDeleteIn some future post. Can you maybe do a future post about your experience growing broccoli. I planted mine in the early fall last year, it survived through winter and now It blossomed with yellow flowers. I live in zone 7 and know that broccoli prefers cool weather. It supposedly it takes about 60 days to grow? I don't know what I did wrong? Maybe you can help shed some light for me.
Have a good day!

I do this with Brussels sprouts also.
ReplyDeleteI made this recipe last night. It came out with a cracker-like base with broccoli still a bit raw. I'm sure it's a great recipe for those who can determine the correct ratios of the ingredients.
