Get the Broccoli Ready:
Turn the oven on high heat (400°F, 200°C).
Chop the broccoli into little florets after washing.
In a big basin, combine the florets and olive oil. Coat evenly by tossing.
Quickly sauté the veggies:
A little amount of olive oil should be heated in a big pan over medium heat.
Sauté the chopped onion for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes translucent.
Sauté for one more minute, stirring occasionally, until the minced garlic releases its scent.
The ezoic
Slice the tomatoes in half and throw in the young greens; then, toss everything into the pan.
The tomatoes should start to soften and the greens should wilt slightly after two or three minutes of cooking.
Create the Rich Sauce:
Toss in the knob of butter in the middle of the pan after pushing the veggies to one side.
To make a roux, add the flour to the melted butter and mix to combine.
Stirring continuously, slowly add the cream and cook, stirring occasionally, until a thick sauce forms.
Add thyme and salt to taste.
Step 2: Mix and Bake
Toss the broccoli florets with the creamy sauce after adding them to the pan.
Pour the batter onto a baking dish and spread it out evenly.
On top, scatter the shredded mozzarella.
Get the Baking Done:
After 20 to 25 minutes of preheating the oven, or when the broccoli is soft and the cheese has melted and become a golden brown color, transfer the baking dish to the oven.
Transfer from oven to serving platter; let to cool for a few minutes after removal. Serve as an entree or a side and savor the cheesiness and creaminess of this healthy meal.
For a full dinner, try it with some grilled chicken or fish.
For a healthier alternative, try it with a crisp green salad.
Hints for Recipes:
For even roasting, coat the broccoli well with olive oil.
To the cream sauce, add a dash of nutmeg for an additional dimension of taste.
The melting quality will be optimal when using freshly grated mozzarella.
