Broccoli in a skillet. Salt, oil, and a splash of water under a lid. About 15 minutes. One serving.
Ingredients
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 tablespoon oil
- ½ tablespoon black pepper, optional
Equipment
- Knife and cutting board
- Bowl, big enough to mix
- Skillet with a lid
Method
- Wash the broccoli in cold water.
- Heat the pan and the oil over medium. You will need the lid later.
- Cut the florets in half.
- Put them in a bowl where you can mix well.
- Add the salt and mix.
- Add other seasonings, 1 tablespoon per cup of florets.
- Put the florets in the hot pan, trying to get the stem in contact with the pan.
- When the broccoli turns bright green, about 5 minutes, add 1 tablespoon of water and cover.
- When the water evaporates, it is ready.
Notes
- Stem against the pan is the side that browns. The water and the lid finish it.
