Broccoli with Green Pepper & Garlic

The parmesan is as much for grain as for taste - hence the small quantity.

Serves : 4 – 6

Ingredients:

675g / 1½lb Fresh Broccoli

Salt to taste

30ml / 1fl oz Olive Oil

1 Small Green Pepper, deseeded and finely sliced

4 Cloves Garlic

¾ tbsp Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese

Freshly Ground Black Pepper

Instructions:

1. Bring plenty of salted water to the boil.

2. Drop in the trimmed broccoli florets and boil for 3 minutes.

3. Drain them and stop the cooking process by plunging them immediately into cold water.

4. Heat the olive oil over a high flame.

5. Cook the pepper in the oil until the slices begin to brown slightly at the edges.

6. Reduce the heat to a simmer and add the garlic cloves, well crushed.

7. Cook the pepper and garlic together for 1 – 2 minutes.

8. Add the broccoli and the grated parmesan cheese, turn in the oil and parmesan until the broccoli is hot.

9. Serve immediately, lavishly sprinkled with the pepper.
