1 Video | Photo: Orange-Scented Broccoli and Cauliflower Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 head broccoli, cut into florets (save those stems for soup!)
- 1 head cauliflower, cut into florets (think soup!)
- 1 navel orange, rind removed and reserved
- Salt
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 3 turns of the pan
- 2 shallots, thinly sliced
- 1 orange, juiced
- Pepper
- 2 scallions, sliced
Directions
Bring a couple inches of water to boil in a large skillet and add the florets, orange rind and salt. Cover and simmer until tender, about 6 minutes. Drain broccoli and cauliflower, remove rind and transfer to a platter or bowl. Return pan to heat, add extra-virgin olive oil and heat over medium heat. Add shallots and cook until soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Add broccoli and cauliflower and turn to coat. Squeeze the orange juice over the pan and toss veggies again. Season the orange scented broccoli and cauliflower with salt and pepper, to your taste. Garnish with sliced scallions.

We really liked this dish. Very easy but next time I'll add the Broccoli a couple of minutes after the Cauliflower. It tended to fall apart - but still very tasty! Also I added a few red pepper flakes which added a little something extra to the dish.

Pretty darn good, and super easy! I used a wok and cooked the C&B in the water salt and clementine orange rind. When cooked, I drained the C&B and added some coconut oil, more salt, pepper, and juice from 4 clementines. I didn't have the scallions so i added a few tbsp of 'Rapunzel' brand powdered veggie broth that you can get at health food stores which added a lot of flavor.

Great Recipe. It only says Scented so it wasn't the strong taste of orange..I didnt boil as long so it had a little crunch. It was goo though.
