broccoli with mayonnaise & soy sauce

ingredients:

  • 5 ounces broccoli
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons white sesame seeds or 2 tablespoons ground toasted sesame seeds (optional)



If you don't use white sesame seeds, start with Step 3.

step 1:

Parch the white sesame seeds in a frying pan over medium-high heat until they crackle and pop.

step 2:

Put them in an earthenware mortar (suribachi) or food processor and grind.

step 3:

Divide the broccoli into small florets (including stems, if desired). If you don't eat broccoli raw, put the broccoli in a heat-resistant container or on a plate and cover with a plastic wrap. Heat in a microwave oven to the desired softness.

step 4:

Mix the mayonnaise and soy sauce in a bowl. Add ground toasted sesame seeds (optional).

step 5:

Add the broccoli and mix.

comment:

Broccoli contains minerals, vitamins, and phytochemicals, soy sauce is a fermented food, and sesame seeds contain a good balance of fat, protein, and carbohydrates, plus minerals, vitamins, and dietary fiber, making this dish healthy and delicious.
