What you need

• 700 g (1 1/2 lb) broccoli, 1 large head

Method

Restated from the original video

1. 1

   Heat the oven to 220 °C (425 °F) and line a large baking sheet with baking paper.

2. 2

   Cut the broccoli into florets of about the same size. Peel the thick stalk and slice it into coins.

3. 3

   Dry the pieces well, since wet broccoli steams instead of browning.

4. 4

   Put the broccoli on the sheet, add the olive oil, salt and pepper and toss with your hands until every piece is coated.

5. 5

   Spread it out in one layer with a little space between the pieces.

6. 6

   Roast for 10 min.

7. 7

   Scatter the garlic over, toss and roast until the floret tips are deep brown and the stems are just tender, 6-8 min.

8. 8

   Sprinkle on the parmesan and roast until it melts, about 2 min more.

9. 9

   Serve hot, straight from the sheet.
