Broccoli sides

The other day, I bought broccoli but ended up forgetting about it. Last night, I remembered, but it had already turned a bit yellow and did not look very appetizing. However, instead of throwing it away, I thought I would try something new and came up with these delicious small broccoli sides. I really don’t know what to call them …souffles, puddings, frittata…

Ingredients

1 broccoli

200 ml cream

3 eggs

75 g grated cheese (parmesan…or 1/2 parmesan mixed with other left over cheese…)

Salt and ground nutmeg

Instructions

cheese…) Turn on the oven at 220 degrees C. Add a few millimeters of oil in each cup of a muffin tin. Heat it up in the oven.

Meanwhile, rinse the broccoli well and cut into smaller pieces. You can easily use the stem as well. Just cut off the bottom part and peel the stalk as the outer layer is a bit rough. Steam until soft.

Puree the broccoli.

Whisk the eggs with cream, add the cheese and pureed broccoli, add a tsp of salt and a dash of ground nutmeg.

When the oil in the muffin tin is hot, carefully remove the tin from the oven (and don’t spill the oil…it is VERY hot!!), quickly fill up the cups by 3/4. Return to the oven and bake for 20 minutes.

Serve hot!
