Broccoli with garlic and chilli

Ingredients (serves 4)

800g broccoli, cut into small florets
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon dried chilli flakes

Method

1. Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil over high heat. Add broccoli. Cook for 3 minutes or until bright green and just tender (see shortcut). Drain well.

2. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large, deep frying pan or wok over low heat. Add garlic and chilli. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until aromatic. Increase heat to medium. Add broccoli. Toss until well coated. Season with salt and pepper. Serve.

Notes & tips
Shortcut: Cut a cross in the base of each broccoli floret. Wash and place, with water clinging, in a snap-lock bag. Microwave on HIGH (100%) for 5 to 6 minutes or until just tender.
