Broccoli Almondine

This classic broccoli almondine is a sophisticated yet simple vegetarian side dish that brings a touch of elegance to any midweek meal. By lightly steaming the broccoli and tossing it in a rich, foaming almond butter, you transform a humble green vegetable into something truly special. The combination of citrusy lemon juice and toasted nuts provides a wonderful contrast to the tender spears, ensuring every bite is full of texture and bright flavour.

Perfect for a Sunday roast or as a healthy accompaniment to grilled fish, this dish is naturally gluten-free and packed with essential nutrients. If you are looking for a quick way to elevate your greens, this homemade favourite is an excellent choice. It is best served immediately while the almonds remain crisp and the butter is beautifully aromatic.

How to make Broccoli Almondine
