Serves: 1 (easily multiplied)
Cooking time: 9 minutes
What You’ll need:
- A decent frying pan
- a knob of butter
- 3 Tenderstem broccoli stems (choose the slimmest)
- Boiling water from the kettle
- Salt
- 2 eggs
- a little vegetable oil to cover the pan
- 1 tablespoon of caster sugar
- A pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon of water
- 1 tablespoon of soy/tamari/shoyu or ponzu sauce
What To Do:
- Put a knob of butter into your frying pan on a medium heat. Place the Tenderstem broccoli in the pan and add a little boiling water to the pan, just enough to cover the stems. Braise for 4 minutes until the stems are tender.
- Drain the Tenderstem and set it aside, and wipe the moisture from the frying pan.
- Whisk together the eggs, caster sugar, salt, water and soy/tamari/shoyu or ponzu sauce. Add a little vegetable oil to your frying pan, just covering the bottom and add the egg mixture so that it covers the bottom of the pan.
- Once the egg begins to set, add the broccoli stems to the omelette, laying them next to each other stem to tip. Then, using a spatula, start to roll the omelette over the stems. You are aiming for a rolled Japanese style omelette with the bright green crisp broccoli stems inside.
- Serve whole or sliced cross ways with small dipping bowl of soy sauce.
