I used those Ziplock Steamer bags to cook my broccoli for 2 minutes and I had the Shallot Salt on hand but I don't know if that is essential - I think you can season with salt and pepper and if you have, a minced shallot - or not! Prep time includes steaming the broccoli. Ingredients:
2 heads broccoli |
1 small red onion, chopped |
2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved |
1 teaspoon shallot salt (optional) |
1 teaspoon basil, crumbled or 1 tablespoon fresh basil, minced |
1/2 cup olive oil (or vegetable oil) |
1/4 cup red wine vinegar |
1 -2 teaspoon sugar (or honey) |
Directions:
1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add broccoli which has been cut into large florets and cook for a max of 2 minutes.
2. Mix olive oil/vegetable oil, red wine vinegar, basil, shallot salt (if using) or salt and pepper with sugar (or honey).
3. Add dressing to the warm, drained broccoli. Add chopped red onion and halved cherry tomatoes. Toss to mix.
4. You can serve this room temperature or chill in the fridge if you like your salad cool.
