Your secrets to making broccoli and cauliflower enjoyable?

[crazyfacials]

Once upon a time I would be like "YEAH I LOVE THIS STUFF" but now it's like "f*ck....NOT THIS AGAIN"

 

So what are some great herbs/spices you folks use or cooking methods to make it taste good?

[maccaz]

for broccoli i stopped just steaming it and half steam it then fry it real high with tiny bit of oil spray, salt, pepper, gets kind of crunchy bits at least good for a change

 

in any case its not meant to taste nice haha

[Spacebound]

cheese sauce.....if you got the macros. 

[shatterr]

lemon pepper seasoning on broccoli, i dont eat cauli

[GyzzBrah]

Yeah idk about cauli but just take frozen or fresh brocolli and microwave with a splash of water and add a bit of olive oil, salt, pepper and chopped garlic and put it in a salad. f*ck sugar based salad dressings. This goes down a treat.

[Sandif]

Cauliflower mash... Almost as good as mashed potatoes!

For broccoli, try steaming it in the microwave with a bit of oyster sauce or lea and Perrins sauce.....

[crazyfacials]

These are all good ideas cheers, no cheesesauce for a while Space :/

 

I used to mash the broccoli (well I'd steam it and put it in my magic bullet knock off) went well 

 

currently using spicy Cajun spices on it and it's good but change is always good

Went to a burger place in Auckland a few weeks ago, maybe burger burger? They had an amazing broccoli side which from memory was just almond slices and garlic butter, done in a pan. So good and i'm not really a fan of brocolli

Steamed cauliflower is amazing with a fillet of smoked salmon. One's pretty bland, and one's pretty rich, so they balance each other perfectly. Even better if you add a bit of zing from capers (gherkin,etc, would do the same job)

[GyzzBrah]

For cauli theres an indian thing where you fry it in oil with potatoes and put some tumeric and chilli powder and these seeds.

I chunder at the thought of broccoli and cauliflower. Who the hell named broccoli, broccoli? Whoever did needed a hammer to the testicles. I don't normally use the word hate, but I hate the word broccoli.

[Pseudonym]

I guess you're not a fan of broccoflower either then, FUBU?

 

[lynx]

If you blend the broccoli is it better for you? Can I eat 20 broccoli a day?

Unrelated to broccoli, but I finally figured how to eat plain oats - cover them in apple sauce. Nice hot vs cold feeling.

[Bruce Al]

have you tried adding apple sauce to broccoli?

I get a couple of them $2 bags of coli and broc from the frozen section (typically Countdown) Don't defrost just straight into nuker and it's nice as hell.

 

Every day for months that's my veg with a roast meat and kumie for lunch.

 

Snap frozen like that it tastes so damn nice and fresh, has all the good crap locked in, and super simple and quick.

 

How much you talking you'd have in a week?

[tyreguy]

Steam from frozen and little chili sauce

[tyreguy]

Just chuck some frozen ones in a blender with barley and wheatgrass powder, water add a bit of fruit for taste..in fact you could do this with most leafy greens if u cbf...then down the hatch..I do this sometimes for my kids..I found that the longer veges stayed on their plate..well the longer they stayed there..hide it in there with some yoghurt..or whatever..if u wana be hardcore look up Victoria Buetenkos book..green for life..bit off topic now..so so sorry...(not)

Pretty much what I do, ...but as of late been sprinkling random spices on it for trail and error taste

Roast the broccoli on a high heat for 15 mins. Coat in olive oil and salt before roasting. Fucking amazing.

[Pseudonym]

Roasted broccoli? What madness is this?!
