Serves 2

  • 50ml vegetable oil

  • 1 broccoli

  • Salted water

  • 3 tbsp rice flour

  • 3/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated

step 1.

break up the broccoli into bite sized chunks, cut the woody outsides of the stem and chop them up into chunks approx the same size.

step 2.

Bring salted water to the boil. place the broccoli in and cook for 3 minutes or until tender. Strain out and dry on a paper towel

Step 3.

Grate the cheese and toss in the broccoli mixture along with a little olive oil and a little more salt and the rice flour.

Step 4.

In a pan on medium heat, pour in your oil, lay down the broccoli making sure there is enough space between each floret. You might have to do this in 2 stage if you don’t have a pan big enough. Top each of the broccoli with the leftover cheese. Cook on both sides, making sure you are getting lovely colour but not burning.

Take out of the pan and rest on baking paper until cool enough to touch. Serve with your favourite condiments.
