After I came to know the benefits of broccoli I desperately tried
to add this very vegetable in our meals. However, I never succeeded to do the same,
because nobody liked it. One of my
friends suggested frying broccoli. I cooked that, but I never succeeded to make
that delicious. That problem was that, due to the lack of taste, I had to
finish the rest of the dish every time. There were very rare occasion, when my
hubby dear finished. So, one day I searched on the Internet to find a suitable
and easy recipe, yet delicious to cook broccoli. I found one recipe, but at
that time I didn’t have all the ingredients to cook. So, I altered the recipe,
and I baked with whatever was available at home. Surprisingly, that was an
instant hit.After that I have baked broccoli many times in the same way,
and whoever has eaten that, said only one word, “delicious”.
Ingredients:
10-12 florets of broccoli
2 tbsp. Heaped all-purpose flour
1 egg
½ tsp baking powder
Pinch of salt
1 tsp of sugar
1 ½ tbsp oil (I used olive oil. Any kind of oil or butter
can be used.)
1 tbsp grated mozzarella cheese (you can cheddar cheese
also)
Method:
Boil the broccoli florets with pinch salt until the florets
become just tender. Do not over-boil. Discard the water as much as possible,
because the water content in the florets can be a problem in baking. In a bowl
add all the ingredients except the florets and cheese. Make the fine batter. If
you need, add little milk. Grease a baking tray, and pour the batter into it. Arrange
the florets on the batter. Sprinkle cheese from the top. Bake of 20 minutes or
a fork comes out clean when you prick in the middle. The broccoli bake is
ready. Serve hot with tea or coffee.

The table cloth in the picture also made by me, and I used all old dresses and T-shirt. How is the concept of up-cycle? |
