Griddled greens

This simple dish is so easy and delicious and can be eaten hot, warm or cold – on its own or as an accompaniment to a more a substantial main course.

Ingredients

  • 1 bunch tender stem broccoli
  • 1 bunch asparagus
  • 1 courgette
  • Pinch of fennel pollen (you can crush fennel seeds if you don’t have/can’t get fennel pollen)
  • Sprig of Fresh tarragon and parsley chopped
  • Salt and pepper
  • Olive oil

Method

  1. Heat your ESSE hot plate to full power. Trim the ends of the broccoli and asparagus. Slice the courgette into slices.
  2. Pour some olive oil onto the hot plate and throw on the asparagus and broccoli. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Sizzle away until golden and then turn over. Lower the lid and cook for a couple more minutes.
  4. The veg should be al-dente. Place in a serving dish then repeat the process for the courgette.
  5. Stir a little more olive oil and into all the veg, and mix in the herbs, season with the fennel pollen.
