Ingredients

  • 1 head Broccoli, cut into florets
  • 1 1/2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 tsp Salt

Method

  1. Cut the crowns away from the large stems of the broccoli. Break the crown up into bite-sized florets. Rinse the broccoli florets thoroughly. Peel and discard the thick outer skin of the stems. Slice the stems or cut them into quarters lengthwise. Place 2.5cm of water in a saucepan with a steamer and bring to a boil.
  2. Add the broccoli to the steamer then cover; reduce heat to medium and let cook for 5-6 minutes. The broccoli is done when you can pierce it with a fork. As soon as it is penetrable, remove from heat, then place in serving dish.
  3. Transfer in a bowl and dress with olive oil and salt. Toss gently to coat and serve.
