If you read our last blog post you would know you’re expecting a lot of new recipes from us! We have a got a new recipe every single day for the next 10 days! We know its exciting. All of these recipes are prefect for any summer BBQ. We are going to teach you some tips and tricks for each one and some other ways to cook the recipes if you don’t have a BBQ.
The first up in our summer recipe is probably our favourite side we have ever made, and that is Lemon Broccoli! This is a combination of all the best flavours.. well to us.
The broccoli is pre cooked, and then made crispy on the BBQ. If you don’t have a BBQ, you could crisp the florets up by heating up a skillet pan with a little bit of rapeseed oil, make sure its hot! Chuck the broccoli in and it will sizzle.. Don’t be afraid this is a great thing! Give it a little shake and cook for about 3 minutes. Amazing!
