Fried Broccoli

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Broccoli

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and blanch for about 2-3 minutes until bright green and slightly tender. Remove and immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside.

2

Fry the Broccoli

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the blanched broccoli and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until crispy and golden brown. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

3

Make the Tahini Vinaigrette

In a small bowl, whisk together tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, water, and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy. Adjust consistency with more water if needed.

4

Serve

Transfer the crispy broccoli to a serving platter and drizzle with tahini vinaigrette. Serve warm.
