Broccoli with Asian dressing by Jamie Oliver
If simply boiled broccoli doesn't interest you anymore, or if you like it spicy, then this recipe is for you. It's simple to make, but it's interesting and spicy.
Composition:
- broccoli - 600g .
- Fresh ginger root the size of a thumb
- garlic - 1 clove
- fresh red chili pepper - 1 piece .
- extra virgin olive oil - 3 tbsp.
- sesame oil - 1 tbsp.
- soy sauce - 1 tbsp.
- lime - 1 piece
- balsamic vinegar - 1 tsp.
Cooking:
Separate the broccoli into small florets and finely chop the stems.
Broccoli should be cut into small florets.
Boil the broccoli in a steamer for 6 minutes. (If you don't have a steamer, you can boil the kale in boiling water for 4-5 minutes without letting it soften).
Meanwhile, peel the ginger slice and garlic and grate it.
Cut the chili pepper in half, remove the seeds and finely chop.
Squeeze the juice from the lime.
In a bowl, combine the chili, ginger and garlic, add the sesame oil, soy sauce and olive oil, pour in the balsamic vinegar and whisk. Taste the resulting dressing and balance the flavors if necessary: salty from the soy sauce, sweet from the balsamic vinegar, sour from the lime and spicy from the chilies.
Transfer the cooked broccoli to a platter, drizzle with the dressing and serve. Perfect with well-cooked meat or fish.
Enjoy!
