Everyday meal series – Broccoli Puree

Recipes, Sides and sauces heelsandspices

This is a favorite of my non-keto son. He just loved the taste of it, and even prefers it to a traditional potato puree. I used to like potato puree a lot but I promise you that now I would not change this one for the beloved potato puree. It is lighter, creamier and the taste is awesome.

Usually I pair it with pan seared fish, steak or duck breast, but it can be paired with anything you feel like. That is the beauty of food, there is freedom to adapt it to our needs, tastes and likes. In the picture it looks coarse, but that is because I added chopped parsley at the end, which is not needed.

    This vibrant green purée is packed with healthy nutrients and taste. It would pair so well with any protein, especially fish. With salmon, it is a match made in heaven. Thank you once more 🥰

      Maybe the blending? Or the ingredients themselves. Try to add more cream

    I have a little extra time to browse and I’m inspired to try this one soon! Does this adapt well to middle eastern or African seasonings like ras-el-hanout or dukkah? I’m sure you’ve made a few “twists” ™ on the flavor profile! 😉

    I made this tonight to go with steak. I didn’t have heavy cream (harder to find in shops with the COVID19 shutdowns), so I substituted ½ sour cream, ½ cream cheese. It still worked, nice and smooth, verrrrry good! ❤️
