Wow this broccoli was good!
The recipe itself is so very simple. You wouldn’t think the end result would be so good.
I steamed the broccoli for about 7 minutes in an inch of water. It was soft, but not mushy - just the way we like it.
The garlic blooms well in the oil. You get a nice subtle garlic flavor throughout the dish.
The parmesan cheese melts just enough so that it is not incorporated, but a kind of topping.
When my daughter went for seconds - she got the broccoli and not the main dish portion!
