A quick method for making flavorful vegetables. Handy for when all your burners are in use, or if you only have a microwave to cook with. This is more a method than a recipe (I've alway just guessed at quantities). Read more . I've tried with low fat sour cream, but sadly, it doesn't work. The high fat content makes this recipe work. Ingredients:
broccoli with cheese sauce |
1 cup broccoli florettes (4-6 oz.) |
1 heaping tablespoon sour cream or crème fraîche |
1/4 cup grated cheese (1 oz) (cheddar, swiss, muenster, anything that melts) |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Broccoli with Cheese Sauce
2. Cut up broccoli in largish florettes, place in covered microwave dish with a tablespoon of water.
3. Grate cheese, have sour cream handy.
4. Cook just the broccoli (covered) in microwave untill ALMOST done (for me, that takes 2 1/2 minutes on high).
5. Stir in the sour cream and shredded cheese.
6. Cover and microwave for 30 seconds longer.
7. Stir a little and serve.
8. Salt and pepper to taste
