Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 head fresh broccoli, about 1 1/2 pounds
1 hard-cooked egg
4 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup fine fresh bread crumbs
2 tablespoons finely chopped shallots
Salt to taste if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Cut the top of the broccoli into bite-size florets. Reserve stems. Trim off and discard outside of stems. Cut stems into bite-size pieces.
  • Bring water to a boil in the bottom of a steamer. Put the broccoli pieces on a steamer rack. Place the rack over the simmering water and steam about 10 minutes or until tender. Or, if you prefer, drop the broccoli pieces into a saucepan of boiling water and simmer 3 to 4 minutes. Drain the broccoli, if necessary, and put it in a hot serving dish.
  • Meanwhile, put the egg through a fine sieve, pressing with the fingers.
  • Heat the butter in a small skillet and add the bread crumbs, shallots, salt and pepper. Cook, shaking the skillet and stirring, until the crumbs are lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the sieved egg and parsley and stir to blend. Cook, shaking the skillet and stirring, about 30 seconds. Pour the mixture evenly over the broccoli and serve.
