Braised Tenderstem® broccoli with Red Pepper and Dill by Yasmin Khan
Method
-
Place a saucepan over a medium heat and add the oil. Add the garlic and fry for a couple of minutes, then add the onion and stir well. Reduce the heat to low, place a lid on the saucepan and cook for 4-5 minutes.
-
When the onion has softened, add the chopped red pepper, dill, lemon juice, sugar, salt and a generous grind of pepper. Stir again and then cover and leave to cook for a further 5 minutes.
-
Finally, add the Tenderstem® broccoli and stir through 3 tbsp water. Cover and steam for about 4 minutes until the Tenderstem® broccoli is just cooked through but still has some bite.
-
Taste to adjust the seasoning with salt and black pepper, then transfer to your serving dish, drizzle with some extra virgin olive oil and finish with a sprinkling of pul biber (Turkish red pepper flakes) or other mild chill flake (if using).
