Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced.
• Chop broccoli (including stalk!) into small florets.
• Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water.
• Cook broccoli in the boiling water, over high heat, until just tender,
5-6 minutes.
• Drain and pat broccoli dry with paper towel.
TIP: Patting the broccoli dry helps it crisp up in the oven!
• Place broccoli on a lined oven tray.
• Using the flat base of a bowl, crush broccoli until about 1cm thick. Drizzle
with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and Cheddar cheese. Roast until golden,
12-15 minutes.
• Transfer cheesy smashed broccoli to a serving dish.
• Serve with tomato relish. Enjoy!
