One pot Bimi® broccoli festive greens
This is a great way of not only cooking all the greens for the festive dinner in one pot, but also sneaking sprouts into the meal in a way that, honestly, everyone will love! It’s a really low-effort but high-reward side dish. Weigh and prepare the vegetables in advance of your meal, and just cook these at the very last minute; it takes 5-6 minutes of hands-off cooking and the greens will be vibrant and lively, rather than dull and soggy.

Method
-
Cut the stems of the Bimi® broccoli into 1-2cm pieces, stopping when you get to the florets. Shred the sprouts finely, either by hand or using a food processor attachment, and chop the mint. Keep each of these ingredients separate on your chopping board as they are used in the recipe at different stages.
-
When nearly ready to eat, put a large saucepan full of salted water on a high temperature.
-
When the water starts to boil, put the Bimi® broccoli into the pan. Add the shredded sprouts after 90 seconds. Simmer for another 3 minutes, before adding the frozen peas. Wait for a further minute before draining through a sieve or colander.
-
Return the greens to the saucepan. Add the mint, olive oil, a generous pinch of salt and lots of black pepper. Mix and place into a serving bowl.
