  • 400 g Woolworths Tenderstem broccoli
  • 1 head Romanesco broccoli, sliced
  • 200 g Woolworths cauliflower shoots
  • 100 g baby fennel
  • 5 T extra virgin olive oil

Method

Ingredients

1. Prepare a braai.

2. Blanch the vegetables in salted boiling water for 4–5 minutes – they should still be quite firm.

3. Transfer the vegetables (except the fennel) to a bowl and rub with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Braai until tender and charred.

4. Arrange the vegetables on a platter, top with the fennel and pour over the vinaigrette.
