Sesame broccoli

Ingredients

• 1 Tbsp raw sesame seeds
• 2 Tbsp sesame oil
• 2 Tbsp soy sauce
• 5-6 cups broccoli florettes

Directions

To toast the sesame seeds

• Add the sesame seeds to a dry frying pan and set on the stove top on medium-high heat.
• Continuously shake the pan to keep the sesame seeds moving around. After a couple of minutes, the sesame seeds start to change colour. Watch closely at this point, because they can quickly burn.
• Once the sesame seeds are a caramel colour, remove them from the pan. (If you leave them there, they will burn, even if you’ve removed the pan from the heat!)

To make the broccoli

• Lightly steam the broccoli for 1-2 minutes, until it changes from grey-green to bright green, and the centres are still crunchy.
• Heat sesame oil in a frying pan, add the broccoli, and stir-fry for 5-6 minutes.
• Add the soy sauce and stir-fry 1-2 minutes more until broccoli is tender. Stir in the toasted sesame seeds and serve.
