Categories     Side     Vegetarian     Broccoli

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 5

Broccoli - large
Butter - 1/2 stick
Almonds - 1/2 cup
Lemon juice - 1 Tablespoon
Salt

Steps:

  • Steam broccoli Heat butter Add almonds, brown Stir in lemon juice and salt Toss with broccoli

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender broccoli: Look for broccoli with tightly closed florets and a deep green color. Avoid broccoli with yellowing or wilted florets.
  • Blanch the broccoli before cooking: Blanching helps to preserve the broccoli's bright green color and crisp texture. To blanch the broccoli, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Drain the broccoli in a colander and immediately rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.
  • Use a variety of nuts and seeds: In addition to almonds, you can use other nuts and seeds in this recipe, such as pine nuts, walnuts, or sunflower seeds. You can also use a combination of nuts and seeds.
  • Add a squeeze of lemon juice: A squeeze of lemon juice adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the dish. You can also add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little spice.
  • Serve immediately: Broccoli almondine is best served immediately after cooking. The broccoli will start to lose its crisp texture if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Broccoli almondine is a quick and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is healthy, delicious, and versatile. You can serve it with grilled chicken, fish, or tofu. You can also add it to salads, pasta dishes, or stir-fries. Give this recipe a try the next time you are looking for a healthy and delicious side dish.
