Sesame broccoli with tahini lemon dressing

Prep time 15-20 mins

Cooking time 10-15 mins

Serves 6

1 large or 2 small heads broccoli (approx 800g)

1 Tbsp olive oil

1 tsp light soy sauce (or tamari if gluten free)

1 tsp sesame oil

1 Tbsp sesame seeds, toasted

For the dressing:

2 Tbsp tahini (sesame paste)

2 Tbsp lemon juice

1 tsp light soy sauce

1 tsp sesame oil

2 Tbsp olive oil

1 tsp honey

Chop the broccoli into small florets. Steam until tender and then refresh under cold water. Drain well and place into a serving bowl. Add the olive oil, soy sauce, sesame oil, and sesame seeds and toss to combine.

Put the dressing ingredients in a bowl and stir to combine, checking it is to your taste, and adjusting seasoning as necessary.

The broccoli can be served warm or cold with the dressing on the side.
