Broccoli Or Cauliflower With A Soy-Lemon Dressing - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
2 lbs broccoli or 2 lbs cauliflower (about 2 bunches broccoli)
Soy-Lemon Dressing
3 -4 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
Preparation
-
Using a sharp paring knife, peel the tough skin from the broccoli stems and cut away the stem ends.
Cut off the florets and cut the peeled stems on the diagonal into 1 1/2-inch thick sections.
Separate the larger florets so that all are approximately the same size.
If cooking cauliflower, remove any leaves and break or cut into florets, about 1 1/2 inches wide.
Arrange the broccoli or cauliflower in a steamer tray, or on a plate set on a rack.
Fill a wok or pot with several inches of water and heat to boiling.
Place the vegetable over the boiling water and steam 6-8 minutes, or until tender.
I like my veggies crisp tender so I steam mine just a few minutes.
Steam them till they're the way you like, check after 3-4 minutes.
Drain any water from the broccoli or cauliflower.
Put the vegetable in a serving bowl, add the dressing, toss lightly and serve.
