Broccoli florets are a versatile ingredient that can be cooked in many ways.
- Steamed as a side dish
- Added to stir-fries

You can steam these florets until tender-crisp, roast them in the oven with olive oil and seasonings until slightly browned, or add them directly to simmering sauces and soups. They are also great for quick stir-fries, where they cook down quickly alongside other vegetables and proteins. For a simple side, toss them with a little butter or lemon juice after steaming or boiling.
