Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Broccolini

    Rinse the broccolini under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. Trim the ends of the broccolini stalks if necessary, ensuring they are fresh.

  2. 2

    Blanch the Broccolini

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Once boiling, add the broccolini and cook for 2-3 minutes until bright green and slightly tender. Remove from the pot and immediately plunge into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.

  3. 3

    Drain and Dry

    After a few minutes in the ice water, drain the broccolini and pat it dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Plate the Labne

    In a shallow bowl or plate, spread the labne evenly to create a base for the broccolini.

  2. 5

    Add the Broccolini

    Arrange the blanched broccolini on top of the labne, making sure to distribute it evenly across the surface.

  3. 6

    Season with Za'atar

    Sprinkle the za'atar over the broccolini and labne, ensuring even coverage.

  4. 7

    Drizzle with Olive Oil

    Drizzle the olive oil over the broccolini and labne for added flavor and richness.

  5. 8

    Final Seasoning

    Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust according to your preference.
