Roasted Broccoli & Cheddar Cheese Dip with Potato Wedges Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by jenlin

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 ounces broccoli florets (about 6 cups)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
Black pepper, freshly ground
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups half-and-half
8 ounces mild cheddar, shredded (about 2 1/2 cups)
4 ounces Monterey jack, shredded (about 1 1/2 cups)
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
Roasted potato wedges, toast points, crudites or potato chips, for serving

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 450°F. Toss the broccoli florets with the oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper on a baking sheet and spread out in a single layer. Roast the broccoli until browned in parts and tender but not mushy, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer the broccoli to a cutting board to cool. Coarsely chop the broccoli. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and stir until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook until the flour is lightly browned and has a paste-like consistency, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the half-and-half and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture just comes to a bare simmer and has thickened to the consistency of heavy cream, 10 to 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in the cheddar and Monterey jack until melted. Gently stir in the roasted broccoli and mustard. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving dish and serve with roasted potato wedges or other dippers.

Tips:

  • For a smoother dip, use a blender or food processor to combine the ingredients.
  • If you don't have a blender or food processor, you can mash the avocado with a fork until it is smooth.
  • Add more or less cayenne pepper to taste.
  • Serve the dip with tortilla chips, pita chips, or vegetable crudités.
  • Garnish the dip with chopped cilantro or green onions.

Conclusion:

Cheddar cheese dip is a classic party appetizer that is always a hit. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and creamy dip that will be enjoyed by everyone. So next time you are planning a party, be sure to give cheddar cheese dip a try!
