Protein-Crusted Roasted Broccoli with White Wine Sauce
let's do something new with broccoli
Winter festivals are the perfect time for special recipes. But roasting a hunk of meat every single day is just a bit too one-note, don’t you think? This Solstice, we’re going to be bunging a lot more veg into the oven. Take, for example, this protein-crusted roasted broccoli, served with a delightful, homemade white wine sauce.
Preparation
-
Preheat the oven to 200° C.
-
Puree all the ingredients for the marinade with a high-powered blender.
-
Wash the broccoli. Remove the leaves. Cover the florets completely with the marinade. Then spread the flaked almonds evenly over it.
-
Now make the white wine sauce. Halve the onions, mushrooms, and garlic. Put these into a baking dish along with the other ingredients for the white wine sauce. Set the head of broccoli in the baking dish with the other ingredients - head-up, so as not to disturb the almond coating!
-
Roast the broccoli for 70-80 minutes. Test for softness by poking through into the inside of the roasted broccoli with a toothpick.
-
Dice the parsley. Remove the thyme leaves from the sprig.
-
Garnish the roasted broccoli with the fresh herbs. Serve with the white wine sauce. This is a chunky sauce that does not need blending.
- Enjoy!
