Ingredients

  • 400g purple sprouting broccoli
  • 1 tbsp rapeseed oil
  • 30g unsalted butter
  • 3 clove/s garlic, finely sliced
  • 1 Thai chilli, finely sliced
  • 8 fresh curry leaves
  • 50g rolled oats
  • ½ tsp caster sugar
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges, to serve

Method

  1. Cook the broccoli in a saucepan of boiling water for 2 minutes, then drain and dunk in a bowl of ice-cold water to refresh. Drain well, pat dry and drizzle with the oil, then season with salt. Heat a large frying pan until very hot, then sear the broccoli for 3-4 minutes or until charred; set aside on a warm plate. Leave the pan to cool for a few minutes, then wipe out to use again.

  2. Melt the butter in the frying pan over a medium-low heat. Once it’s foaming, frythe garlic and chilli for 1-2 minutes until golden and fragrant. Add the curry leavesand fry until crisp (usually a few minutes). Add the oats and fry for 4-5 minutes more, stirring, until toasted. Season with salt and the sugar and mix well, then toss through the broccoli. Serve with lime wedges to squeeze over.
