Categories     quick, side dish

Time 15m

Yield 2 to 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

Salt
3 cups broccoli spigarello leaves, or broccoli rabe leaves (stems discarded)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
pinch of chili flakes

Steps:

  • Prepare a large bowl of ice water, and set aside. Fill a large pot with water, salt heavily (it should taste like seawater), and bring to a boil. Add broccoli spigarello, and blanch until bright green and tender, about 2 minutes. Drain, immediately plunge into ice water until cooled, and drain again.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, heat olive oil until shimmering. Add garlic, cover, and cook until tender but not browned, about 1 minute. Add broccoli spigarello and chili flakes. Stir slowly to gently reheat. Serve hot with, if desired, gnocchi or risotto.

A bit too bland for my taste. Would add more seasoning next time.

Amazing!! I'm not vegan, but I'm always looking for ways to reduce my meat consumption. This recipe is a winner!

Not a fan of the lemon sauce. Would try it with a different sauce next time, but the broccoli was cooked very well.

Followed the recipe exactly and it turned out really well. The sauce is rich and creamy and the broccoli is perfectly cooked.

Absolutely wonderful! I added a bit of extra garlic and some red pepper flakes to the sauce. Served it over whole grain pasta.

This recipe made the best use of my spigarello, which I usually struggle to use up before it goes bad. So pleased!

My first attempt at vegan cooking. The result was amazing! The broccoli was cooked to perfection, slightly crunchy and full of flavor. And the sauce was so flavorful and creamy. Will definitely make this again.

Broccoli Spigarello was not available at my local store today, I used regular broccoli. It was delicious and crunchy, and the garlic and lemon sauce is very tasty.
