Even if you decide to simply boil broccoli, there are some nuances to consider to ensure you get a beautiful, bright green side dish with an equally vibrant flavor. Drop the broccoli florets into boiling, salted water and cook for about 2 minutes. The florets should retain their shape, become slightly softer, and not overcook. Serve with a drizzle of lemon juice. It makes a delicious and healthy side dish for any meal.

• 1 bunch of broccoli (about 450 g)
