Steamed Broccoli with Beurre Noisette

   Steam the broccoli over boiling water (or boil in salted water to cover) until tender and bright green, usually less than 10 minutes.

7. 7

   Drain if necessary and sprinkle with salt.

8. 8

   (Or run under cold water and refrigerate.

9. 9

   To reheat, put a little olive oil or butter in a pan over medium heat and turn the broccoli in it until hot.)

10. 10

    Swirl the lemon juice into the beurre noisette and drizzle it over the broccoli; serve immediately.
