Broccomole

What you need: 

1 large head of broccoli
half a teaspoon of fresh ground cumin
half a teaspoon of fresh ground coriander
juice of half a medium lemon
tiny bit of fresh crushed garlic (up to individual taste, really!)
tiny bit of finely chopped shallots (again up to individual)
one roughly diced medium tomato

What you do: 

I decided to make this recipe after seeing its name which made me giggle; and it is REALLY delicious. Start by cooking the broccoli ( I just took off the tough outer leaves but used everything else) - I microwaved it for speed, but steaming is - it is done when a knife pierces without resistance (tender) try about 8 mins to start with. Put into a blender or food processor with the lemon juice, cumin, coriander, garlic and shallots and blend until really smooth. I added some water blend briefly so that the tomato is still chunky. Leave for about 10 mins so that the flavours can mingle and then eat as a dip with crudites or use as a spread on fresh vegan bread or thin it and use it over hot veggies. This is REALLY REALLY good and very healthy too!
