Ingredients
- 300 g broccoli cut into florets
- 3 tablespoon water
- 1 pinch sea salt and ground black pepper
Instructions
- Put the broccoli into a microwave safe bowl. Pour the water over the broccoli.
- Cover with a plate and microwave on high power for 5 minutes.
Notes
- We used fresh broccoli for this recipe. If you are using frozen then you will need to use less water and cook for longer.
- You don't want overcooked and mushy broccoli. Every microwave varies, so cook it for 4 minutes and then cook for 30 seconds at a time more until the desired doneness.
- When placing the plate over the bowl, make sure it is the right way up. This will prevent moisture from escaping.
- Serve with butter or olive oil on top.
