Steamed broccoli
Random recipe review
How Green?
5/5
If you like your broccoli green, then this is for you!
This is probably our favourite vegetable and steaming it is such an easy way to cook it. Allow 3 to 4 minutes for crunchy, about 5 minutes to leave it slightly tender but still with a little bite.
