Keyword: Broccoli, Sides
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes

Equipment

  • Cutting Board
  • Knife
  • Pot
  • Slotted Spoon

Ingredients

Broccoli steamed in butter

  • 1 pcs. Broccoli
  • 200 gram Water
  • 50 gram Butter
  • 3 gram Salt

Instructions

  • Cut your broccoli in half.
  • Rinse it under a cold water faucet and dry it thoroughly with a clean tea towel.
  • Cut the florets so they are as uniform in size as possible.
  • Find a pot that is large enough to hold them in as few layers as possible.
  • Add water, salt, and butter to the pot.
  • Turn up the heat to high and when the butter has melted, add your broccoli florets.
  • Cover with a lid and steam for 2 minutes.
  • Remove the pot from the heat.
  • Take off the lid and stir the pot.
  • Let it sit in the pot for 2 minutes.
  • Use a slotted spoon to remove them, as there will still be some liquid left in the pot. Alternatively, you can drain off the water and let your broccoli drip dry in a colander.
  • Serve optionally with a bit of butter, grated lemon zest, and flaky salt on top.
