Ingredients

  • 4 Cloves garlic
  • 1 Large head of broccoli, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup Fresh basil
  • 1/2 cup Grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp Salt

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  2. Cut and wash the broccoli into small florets and toss with salt and olive oil.
  3. Roast on a sheet pan until the edges begin to crisp and the inside of the broccoli is tender, about 30 minutes.
  4. In a food processor blend together broccoli along with remaining ingredients until blended well. If a thinner consistency is desired add more olive oil, one tablespoon at a time while blending.
