tenderstem_and_crispy_proscuitto_with_a_creamy_shallot_and_caper_dressingDelicious Tenderstem broccoli with prosciutto finished off with a creamy shallot and caper dressing. Enjoy on its own as a light lunch or serve as a side to simple grilled fish with a squeeze of lemon. 

Serves: 4-6 | Preparation and cooking time: 10 minutes

What You’ll Need:

For the dressing:

  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp sherry vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp clear honey
  • 1 tbsp crème fraise
  • 2 shallots, very finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp capers, roughly chopped 
  • Salt & freshly ground black pepper

For the Tenderstem®:

  • 400g Tenderstem®
  • 12 slices prosciutto
  • Freshly ground black pepper
What To Do:
  1. Preheat the grill to hot.
  2. Make the dressing by whisking all the ingredients together in a small bowl. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Set aside.
  3. Plunge the Tenderstem® into boiling water and blanch for 4-5 minutes until it is tender but with a little ‘bite’. Drain well and divide between individual heatproof dishes, or arrange in a large baking dish.
  4. Lay the slices of prosciutto over the Tenderstem®, ribboning and folding it a little so it looks pretty and a little rustic. Slide under the hot grill and cook for 2-3 minutes until the prosciutto starts to turn crispy.
  5. Drizzle over the dressing and eat immediately, served with warm bread to soak up the juices.
