MAGIC BROCCOLI #HEALTHYVEGAN #EASYRECIPES

This is as yet the best damn broccoli ever. Broiled broccoli with fresh brilliant edges, completed with a shower of lemon juice, get-up-and-go and a sprinkle of parmesan. It's so great, yet so natural, it resembles enchantment… .4 1/2 years prior when I initially shared this broccoli formula, I expressed this was the best damn broccoli I had ever had in my life. That still remains constant.

Of course, I've had fancier. Extraordinary culinary experts can do something amazing for the modest broccoli and transform it into a genuine extravagant dish.But what makes this specific formula the best broccoli formula ever is that it's so speedy and simple but then so good!Roasting is the key here. Simmered broccoli has enhance that is puts plain steamed broccoli to disgrace!! It improves it, you get caramelisation, crunchy edges and it sucks up the kind of the lemon juice.And when you complete it off with a little parmesan… . OMG. It's simply so damn great!!!

Ingredients:

• 2 medium to large heads of broccoli , about 1 kg / 2 lb
• 2 garlic cloves , finely sliced or minced
• 2 1/2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1/2 tsp salt (adjust to your taste)
• Black pepper
• Zest of half a lemon
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 2 tbsp freshly grated parmesan cheese , plus more for garnish

Instructions:

• Preheat oven to 220C/425F (standard) or 180C/350F (fan/convection).
• Cut/break broccoli into florets and pile onto baking tray. (Note 2 re: stem)
• Drizzle all over with extra virgin olive oil, scatter with garlic, salt and pepper. Toss with fingers or tongs, then spread out over tray in a single layer (or toss in large bowl or ziplock bag). 
• Roast for 20 to 25 minutes until the tips of the florets are slightly browned and crispy. The broccoli should be "tender crisp", meaning just cooked through, not soft and floppy.
• Remove from the oven and immediately drizzle over the lemon juice, zest, and parmesan. Toss quickly, transfer to serving plate and garnish with a bit more parmesan. Serve warm!

Recipe Notes:

• Broccoli size - heads about 20 - 22cm / 8-9" wide. Sounds like alot, but the broccoli shrinks while baking.
• Broccoli stem - the thick stem that most people just discard actually has terrific flavour, just like the small stem on each floret. Just peel the outer layer - vegetable peeler or stand it upright and use your knife - then chop and use in this recipe or another recipe. I stockpile things like this and end up using it in a Fridge Forage recipe that I do every week! Stir fries (cut into batons), finely dice and use in soups, fried rice, casseroles or even hide them in things like pasta sauces.
