Purple sprouting broccoli
Some purple sprouting broccoli in the shop this week. Pretty and tasty (tastier than the usual green broccoli). It’s not the season for it (that’s in spring) so I’m not quite sure how it’s got there and what it’ll be like, but it claims to be locally grown, and I like it too much not to give it a try.
This sort of simple recipe with pasta and anchovies (or bacon) works well.
It’s good in equally simple stirfries too.
Or of course you can simply steam it to serve as a side vegetable. Try a squeeze of fresh lemon when you serve it.
More suggestions from Google.
