Why trust us?

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.

Ingredients

2 Persons

1 head

broccoli

For the marinade:

150 g

soy yogurt
1 tbsp

olive oil
1 tbsp

almond butter
50 g

flaked almonds
1 tsp

salt
4 cloves

garlic
2 tbsp

nutritional yeast flakes
1 tbsp

Vegan Protein Neutral
0.5 tsp

pepper
1 tsp

dried thyme
2 tsp

liquid smoke

For the white wine sauce:

3

onions
50 g

brown (cremini) mushrooms
1 head

garlic
5 sprigs

thyme
0.5 tbsp

olive oil
250 ml

vegetable broth
100 ml

white wine
0.5 tsp

salt
You’ll also need:

fresh parsley, fresh thyme

Preparation

1

Preheat the oven to 200° C.
2

Puree all the ingredients for the marinade with a high-powered blender.
3

Wash the broccoli. Remove the leaves. Cover the florets completely with the marinade. Then spread the flaked almonds evenly over it.
4

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!
5

Roast the broccoli for 70-80 minutes. Test for softness by poking through into the inside of the roasted broccoli with a toothpick.
6

Dice the parsley. Remove the thyme leaves from the sprig.
7

Garnish the roasted broccoli with the fresh herbs. Serve with the white wine sauce. This is a chunky sauce that does not need blending.
