This might sound silly, but how is roasted broccoli? |
|
Edited on Wed Dec-08-04 10:43 PM by jpgray
I'm in an experimental mood tonight, and want to try penne with roasted broccoli in a balsamic butter sauce. I've never roasted the suckers before, though I have sauted them on very high heat--should taste good, no? Plus the copycats of this might be funny.
:D

I was thinking of keeping it simple--just tossing them with oil, salt and pepper and then roasting them at 400 F for ten minutes or so.

5. Asparagus is what I usually use |
|
Looking for a change, I suppose. And that is quite tasty. :)

6. I stuff a tin foil bag with butter, potatoes, broccoli and carrots |
|
and slap 'em on the grill for 25 minutes. I personally like the little butter-burnt tips.

I made some last week. Brocolli, summer squash, and red onion
In olive oil
I made a big 9" x 13" pan of it and it was gone the next day.
:9
I use to add potato too but I'm trying to lose a few lbs.

10. How long do you roast it for, and at what temperature? |
|
That does sound delicious, by the way. Perhaps this thread should have been started in the cooking group that no doubt exists. :P

12. 350 I check it every 20 minutes and stir it. |
|
I like it well done so I do it for an hour. But that's a matter of taste as it is cooked in 20. Sometimes I have cooked it longer. If I have potatoes in it I cook it 1 1/2 to 2 hrs.

9. I've been wondering about smoked artichokes. |
|
It's not the same as broccoli, but funny that you should ask.
