Garlic roasted broccoli
October 24th, 2007 @ 20:43I have a new favourite food! Before I went vegetarian broccoli was one of my most hated vegetables. I wouldn’t go near it and I swore it would never ever go in my mouth. Well, that all changed and now broccoli is a huge favourite. I still have a horrible cold so both yesterday and today’s dinner has consisted of easy to cook comfort food. They’ve both also featured my absolute favourite way of cooking broccoli.
So, yesterday’s meal:
Garlic and ‘parmesan’ roasted broccoli with a mac n bechamel (it’s a Swedish classic) with spinach, nutmeg and black pepper. Generously topped with parmazano. Woooooah! It was so good I thought I had died and gone to heaven.
And today’s dinner:
More of that delicous garlic roasted broccoli. This time teamed up with a nice home made potato farl and some baked beans to form an Irish dinner. How is this Irish you ask? Well, does it have green? Yep. Potatoes in any form? Yaps. Tasteless baked beans? You betcha!
Garlic and ‘parmesan’ roasted broccoli:
Because you deserve it!
- 1 head of broccoli (about 500gr/1 lb)
- 2½ tbsp oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- ½ tsp thyme
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 2 tbsp fake parmesan
Turn oven on to 225C or 450F. Cut the broccoli into little florets. Mice/press/grate the garlic cloves. Mix all the ingredients together and toss with the broccoli in a bowl. Make sure to get the oil mixture everywhere on the broccoli. Spread on parchment paper and roast in the oven for about 20 minutes. Serves 2-3 people.

Kati – It’s weird. But I guess it’s because you change your palate, also it would be boring being veg and only eating lettuce!
