Background
High-heat oven roasting is a modern, simple way to concentrate broccoli’s sweetness while crisping its edges. The stems are equally edible when peeled and cut to match the florets.
Ingredients
- 900 g broccoli
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
- 1 lemon
- 30 g grated Parmesan, optional
How to cook
- Heat the oven to 220°C. Cut broccoli into even florets; peel thick stems and slice them.
- Dry thoroughly, toss with oil, salt, and pepper, and spread cut-side down on a large sheet pan.
- Roast for 15 minutes. Add garlic, turn, and roast 5 to 8 minutes more.
- Finish with lemon juice and optional Parmesan.
