INCREDIBLE ROASTED BROCCOLI



Incredible Roasted Broccoli image

There's a fairly similar recipe on here for roasted broccoli, but there's no temperature set, and that's KEY! Also, I like the broccoli to stand on its own--no need for pignoli, aka pine nuts! I, myself, have always loved broccoli, but this method of cooking is BY FAR the best.

Yield 4 side servings, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 stalks broccoli
4 garlic cloves, sliced lengthwise
olive oil (to coat)
sea salt (to taste)
fresh ground pepper (to taste)
1 lemon, juice of
freshly grated parmesan cheese (to taste)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450ยบ.
  • Cut stalks into florets. I find that small florets pick up a very crispy, delicious flavor! Throw in sliced garlic.
  • Toss with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Roast in the oven for twenty minutes. Check to see if crisp-tender, as well as crisp enough for you. (I roast at least 27 minutes!).
  • When satisfactorily roasted, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the broccoli, then top with the freshly grated parmesan cheese.

INCREDIBLE BAKED CAULIFLOWER AND BROCCOLI CANNELLONI

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

Sea salt
1 pound broccoli, washed, florets and stalks chopped
1 pound romanesco or white cauliflower, washed, florets and stalks chopped
Olive oil
7 cloves garlic, peeled and finely sliced
1 small bunch fresh thyme, leaves picked
1 (1-ounce) can best-quality anchovies in oil, drained and chopped, oil reserved
2 to 3 small dried chiles, crumbled
Freshly ground black pepper
2 cups good-quality tomato sauce
Good-quality red wine vinegar
2 cups creme fraiche
7 ounces Parmesan, finely grated
16 cannelloni tubes
1 small bunch fresh basil, leaves picked
7 ounces good-quality mozzarella cheese
Extra-virgin olive oil
4 large handfuls arugula leaves, washed and dried
1 lemon

Steps:

  • This is a twist on the classic Italian dish of orecchiette with broccoli, anchovies and garlic - I've added cauliflower and made it an oven-baked dish. The flavors are amazing.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil and drop in the chopped broccoli and cauliflower. Boil for 5 to 6 minutes, until cooked, then drain in a colander, reserving the cooking water.
  • Heat a wide saucepan, pour in a couple of good glugs of olive oil and add the garlic. Fry for a few seconds, then add the thyme leaves, anchovies, anchovy oil and chiles and continue frying for a few seconds more before adding the cooked broccoli and cauliflower with around 4 tablespoons of the reserved cooking water. Stir everything together, put a lid on the pan leaving a little gap, and cook slowly for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring regularly - overcooking the vegetables not only intensies their flavor but gives you the texture that you need for this recipe. Remove the lid for the last 5 minutes to let the moisture evaporate, then use a potato masher to crush the vegetables. Take the saucepan off the heat, taste the vegetables and season carefully with salt and pepper. Spread the mixture on a baking sheet to cool. Meanwhile, get yourself another baking dish or roasting pan (the right size for fitting the cannelloni tubes snugly side by side - I test this by actually laying the tubes into the dish, then remove them and put to 1 side) and pour in the tomato sauce with a pinch of salt and a swig of red wine vinegar.
  • Now, to make a really quick and easy white sauce, mix the creme fraiche with half the Parmesan, a sprinkling of salt and pepper and a little of the reserved cooking water to thin it down.
  • Spoon your cooled broccoli and cauliflower mixture into a large sandwich bag and cut off the corner. Twist the top of the bag and squeeze it to pipe the filling into the cannelloni tubes. (If you prefer, use a teaspoon to push the mixture into the cannelloni or use a piping bag.) Fill the tubes up - don't be stingy! - and place them in a single layer on top of the sauce. Lay the basil leaves over the cannelloni and spoon your white sauce evenly over the top. Season with black pepper, sprinkle over the remaining Parmesan and tear over the mozzarella. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until golden and bubbling on top.
  • Dress the arugula leaves with a squeeze of lemon juice and about 3 times as much extra- virgin olive oil. Serve the cannelloni with the arugula and some good crusty bread.

Tips:

  • Choose the right broccoli: Look for broccoli crowns that are deep green in color and have tightly closed florets. Avoid crowns that are yellowing or have open florets, as these are signs of age and poor quality.
  • Trim the broccoli properly: Cut the broccoli into florets about 1-2 inches in size. Be sure to remove any tough stems or leaves.
  • Season the broccoli well: Roasted broccoli is a blank canvas for flavors, so don't be afraid to experiment with different seasonings. Some popular options include olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  • Roast the broccoli at a high temperature: This will help to caramelize the broccoli and give it a nice crispy texture. Aim for a temperature of 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius).
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: If you overcrowd the baking sheet, the broccoli will steam instead of roast. Make sure to leave enough space between the florets so that they can roast evenly.
  • Roast the broccoli until it is tender-crisp: The broccoli should be tender but still have a slight crunch to it. Depending on the size of the florets, this will take about 15-20 minutes.

Conclusion:

Roasted broccoli is a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed as part of a variety of meals. It is also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. With its simple preparation and endless flavor possibilities, roasted broccoli is a dish that everyone should have in their repertoire. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give roasted broccoli a try. You won't be disappointed!
