This recipe roasts the broccoli until it's quite tender in the center, and until the florets develop a bit of char around the edges. This adds so much flavor to the dish.
Ingredients
- 225g broccoli
- 30ml olive oil
- 1⁄2 tbsp rice wine vinegar
- 3 garlic cloves, peeled
- 1⁄2 tsp salt
- (OPTIONAL) 1⁄2 tsp chilli flakes
Directions
1
Heat the oven to 235°C / 215°C (fan oven) / 450°F / Gas Mark 8. Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets, and slice the stems into diagonal bite-sized pieces. (Peel the broccoli stems if you want to; I don
2
Blend the olive oil, rice vinegar, garlic, and salt in a small food processor until thick and creamy. (Or smash the garlic in a mortar and pestle and whisk in a bowl with the other dressing ingredients.) If desired, add a pinch of red pepper flakes. Toss with the broccoli and spread on a baking sheet.
3
Roast for 12 to 15 minutes or until broccoli is tender and the edges are singed. If you desire an extra measure of smokiness, switch the oven to broil, and move the baking sheet up to the highest rack. Broil for 1 to 2 minutes.
