INGREDIENTS

500g cauliflower & broccoli florets cut into bite-size pieces (leaves and stalks too!)
1 cup water
1 tsp salt
5cm ginger finely sliced
4 garlic cloves sliced
Asian Dressing
2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp tamari (soy) sauce
1 tbsp white miso (optional)
1 tsp good chilli oil (my recipe link below)
1 lime zest and 1/2 lime juice to taste
1/2 bunch spring onions finely sliced (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

In a large saucepan with a lid add the water, salt, pepper, ginger and garlic, bring to a simmer, add the florets and place the lid on, set your timer to 5 minutes and gently steam the veggies. TIP: the temp setting should be medium to high - you want the lid to sing a bit and the liquid to evaporate in the cooking time.


Meanwhile, make the sauce, toast the sesames in a small frying pan until golden, set aside. Into a medium serving bowl, add the sesame oil, olive oil, tamari (or soy), chilli oil (if using), zest of 1 lime and juice of 1/2, mix it all together and adjust the seasoning to your taste.


After 5 minutes, check the veggies by biting a bit of the stalks, it might be ready or you might decide to give it another 2 minutes. The florets will be ready when the water has evaporated and the veggies are soft but still with a bite to it.
Add the veggies to the sauce in the serving bowl, including the steamed garlic and ginger, mix well and top with spring onions if using. Enjoy!
