Tenderstem® broccoli with saffron cream
Method
-
Add the saffron and 1 tbsp water to a small saucepan set over a medium heat and bubble until half the water has evaporated.
-
Mix the oil through and heat for around 30 secs – or if using butter, add to the pan, melt and bubble for 30-60 secs until lightly golden. Tip the mixture into a medium bowl to cool slightly.
-
Bring a pan of water to the boil, add the Tenderstem® broccoli and cook for 2 mins then drain.
-
Add the crème fraiche to the bowl with the saffron mixture and season with salt and pepper. Add the Tenderstem® broccoli and the butter beans and fold together. Sprinkle with the cayenne pepper or Tabasco if you like.
-
Great served with your favourite protein, or if you’d prefer to make into a light salad, add two boiled eggs per person.
