Ingredients:

  • 1 broccoli
  • olive oil
  • 4 cloves of garlic, chopped
  • Some grated cheese (Parmesan, for example)
  • Seasoning and spices to taste

Preparation:

  • Wash and cut the broccoli, keeping the stems short so that the circular shape is better achieved.
  • Place the pieces on a baking sheet.
  • First bake the broccoli at 200°C for 15 minutes (or until you see them tender).
  • While it is baking, prepare in a small bowl a mixture of oil, minced garlic and the seasoning or spices of your choice.
  • Once you take the broccoli out of the oven, it is time to make the smash. To do this, take a glass and, using the bottom, crush each piece.
  • Then, spread the broccoli pieces with the oil mixture. Finally, sprinkle with the grated cheese.
  • Put the tray back in the oven for 10 more minutes (or until the cheese is golden brown).
  • You can serve it with a sauce of your choice.
