This is a delicious side dish that I make for special occasions. This makes a very thick sauce and I like to thin it a little with butter which results in a richer tasting sauce. Ingredients:
1 (1 kg) bag broccoli stem, cooked and drained (or 1 lb. bag) |
2 tablespoons flour |
2 tablespoons butter |
1/2 teaspoon oxo chicken bouillon |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 1/3 cups milk |
1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, softened and cut into cubes |
2 green onions, sliced |
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, grated |
Directions:
1. Place broccoli in 9x13 dish. 2. In saucepan, over medium heat, melt butter. 3. Add flour, oxo and salt; stir to form a smooth paste. 4. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly; bring to a boil. 5. Cook and stir 2 minutes. 6. Add cream cheese; stir until melted (if mixture seems too thick, add a small amount of hot, melted butter to thin). 7. Add onions. 8. Pour over broccoli. 9. Sprinkle with cheese and paprika. 10. Bake in pre-heated 350 degree oven for 25 minutes or until bubbly. |
