Braised Broccoli with Garlic, Anchovies & Wine image

This recipe is from a great cookbook "How to cook everything" by Mark Bittman. I like to cook the broccoli for about 2 minutes less time so it is still very crisp and I serve it at room temperature. The recipe called of only 1 tsp of minced garlic but I love that garlic. Don't be afraid of the anchovies just think how good they are in a Caesar salad!!

I'm allergic to anchovies, so I substituted capers instead. The dish was still delicious!

I followed the recipe exactly and my broccoli turned out perfect! The sauce was delicious and the broccoli was tender but still had a bit of a crunch.

This recipe was just okay. The broccoli was a bit bland and the sauce was too salty for my taste.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my broccoli turned out mushy. I think I may have overcooked it.

I'm not usually a fan of broccoli, but this recipe changed my mind. The braising process made the broccoli tender and flavorful, and the sauce was delicious.

This braised broccoli dish was a delightful surprise! The combination of garlic, anchovies, and wine created a savory and flavorful sauce that perfectly complemented the tender broccoli. I especially loved the hint of brininess from the anchovies.
