Zarna’s Simple Steamed Broccoli

As a working mom, Zarna makes this very simple steamed broccoli dish that her kids love and every kid who comes over falls in love with it too.

Serving Size (4-6)

Ingredients

• 1-2 heads of broccoli

• 1/2 cup water

• drizzle of Olive Oil

The Steps

1. Chop up the broccoli heads and stumps into medium sized pieces and give them a good wash

2. In a saute pan, heat ~1⁄2 cup of water and let it come to a boil

3. Add the broccoli into the pan

4. Cover it for 2 min., letting the steam cook it

5. Take out and drain the broccoli

6. Drizzle extra virgin olive oil over it and a touch of freshly ground salt and pepper

7. If I want to add an Indian touch to this, I can temper it with coconut oil, mustard seeds, cumin seeds, a pinch of turmeric, and a pinch of red chili powder.
