Ingredients

  • 500 g broccoli
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • ½ tsp chili flakes
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds white or black

Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 200C degrees (390 F)
  • Cut broccoli florets in to bite size pieces.
  • Peel and mince one clove of garlic.
  • Place broccoli florets on a cooking tray.
  • Drizzle olive oil, garlic mince and chili flakes.
  • Mix everything together. I like to use my hands to make sure that the garlic mince spread evenly on the florets.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for seven minutes.
  • In the meantime, roast the sesame seeds in a hot, dry pan for a few minutes. Make sure they don’t burn.
  • When broccoli is out of the oven, sprinkle sesame seeds on top.

Notes

For less heat, use less chili flakes.
