The addition of crunchy pangritata (which is just a fancy word for toasted breadcrumbs) takes broccoli to another level that even kids won't be able to resist!

Ingredients

  • 1 large broccoli or 2 small , cut into florets
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Pangritata
  • 1/2 cup homemade breadcrumbs (chunkier the better) or panko
  • 3 tbsp finely grated parmesan (optional) (see notes)
  • 1 tbsp extra olive oil
  • salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Toss broccoli with 2tbsp olive oil, salt and pepper.
  2. Spread on tray and roast in 350F/180C oven for around 10 minutes until slightly softened and starting to brown.
  3. Meanwhile, combine breadcrumbs, parmesan, 1 tbsp olive oil and salt in small bowl.
  4. When broccoli is almost done, take the tray out, move the broccoli to one side to make room to spread out the breadcrumbs on the tray.
  5. Roast broccoli and breadcrumbs for approximately 12 min until the breadcrumbs are golden - don't walk away, the breadcrumbs will cook quickly.
  6. Pile combined broccoli and breadcrumbs into serving bowl.

Notes

  • Breadcrumbs - I don't use fancy equipment to make my own breadcrumbs. I just roughly chop stale sandwich bread, then use my fingers to crumble them. I like it chunky - more texture!
  • Instead of parmesan, you could add 1/4 tsp of salt and 1 crushed garlic clove - this will make it healthier (and vegan).
