Broccoli
Recipe: Beautiful broccoli with sweet potato and cheese bake
Ingredients:
3-4 medium sweet potatoes (you can use potatoes if you prefer)
1 large broccoli
2 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cups chopped green onions (scallions)
2 eggs
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 cup grated tasty cheddar cheese
Pepper to taste
a little salt (optional)
Method:
Cook the sweet potatoes in boiling water. Drain and let dry; then roughly mash. Set aside. Cook broccoli covered, in a small amount of boiling water until tender-crisp. Drain well and set aside. Melt the butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the scallions and cook until softened, not brown. Set aside. Place eggs, lemon juice, pepper, salt (optional) and 1/2 cup of the cheese in a food processor and blend for 10 seconds. Add broccoli, sweet potatoes, and scallions, and process until broccoli is finely chopped (about 15 seconds). Taste for seasoning. Pour in buttered baking dish. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top. Bake in preheated 350° oven for 30 minutes, or until set and golden on top. Serves 4 to 6.
