Calabrese with chilli and garlic
Chilli and garlic give lightly cooked broccoli a little extra oomph in this healthy vegetarian side dish. This recipe is good for both purple sprouting and 'normal' Calabrese broccoli. It sits particularly well alongside salmon and chicken.

- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
