CARAMELIZED BROCCOLI WITH GARLIC

Caramelized Broccoli With Garlic image

Found this in Food & Wine Magazine, 10/07 edition. It is fast, healthy, vegetarian, and delicious! I enjoyed preparing it, as well as eating it! The broccoli is slowly caramelized to bring out its sweetness, then enlivened with a squeeze of lemon, a pinch of crushed red pepper and some toasted cashews :) .Update: 11/07/2008 it has been suggested by a few who have reviewed the recipe that they would increase the amount of garlic, so maybe it would make for a nice change!! ;)

Ingredients

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 1/4 lbs broccoli, stems peeled and heads halved lengthwise
1/2 cup water
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced (use more those of you that want a lot of garlic)
2 pinches crushed red pepper flakes
salt
fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (not the bottled kind)
toasted cashews, chopped

Steps:

In a large, deep skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil.
Add the broccoli, cut side down, cover and cook over moderate heat until richly browned on the bottom, about 8 minutes.
Add the water, cover and cook until the broccoli is just tender and the water has evaporated, about 7 minutes.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil along with the garlic and the crushed red pepper and cook uncovered until the garlic is golden brown, about 3 minutes.
Season the broccoli with salt and black pepper, drizzle with the lemon juice, toasted cashews and serve.

My kids love broccoli, especially with lots of garlic. It's great for a special occasion, but it's so quick that I usually fix it once a week in our home. Everyone gobbles it up. -Caramia Sommers, Oswego, New York

This is a fried broccoli side dish that is so good.. This is more of a technique than a recipe. Very easy, and my kids love it.

Number Of Ingredients 3

Ingredients

1 bunch fresh broccoli, trimmed and cut into spears
1/4 cup vegetable oil
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

Heat a large skillet over medium high heat and add the oil.
Add the broccoli and stir well to coat with the oil. Season to taste with s/p.
Fry until the broccoli turns brown from the sugars caramelizing. Just leave it alone until it starts to brown on the bottom before turning it.
The result is crispy, sweet, almost candy-like.
No, it's not burnt - it's CARAMELIZED. LOL.
