Tenderstem broccoli with ricotta, lemon and shaved parmesan recipe

Tenderstem broccoli with ricotta, lemon and shaved parmesan recipe

One of the great things about Tenderstem broccoli is that it’s easy to dress up. Steam or boil it and you have the makings of a chic salad or starter, and one that’s healthy too. It's an elegant vegetable.

Tenderstem has a delicate, slightly sweet flavour so it's great with muted ingredients such as ricotta and positively sings when dressed with a good fruity extra virgin olive oil.
