🍳Step-by-Step: Roasted Broccoli in 4 Moves
1. Prep the Parmesan
Secure your cheese grater hand crank with its suction base. Insert the fine shred blade. Feed in a Parmesan block—crank a few times for light, fluffy shreds. Set aside.
2. Season the Broccoli
Toss broccoli florets with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and a pinch of red pepper flakes (if using). Spread evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
3. Roast to Perfection
Roast until edges are crispy and golden. Sprinkle shredded Parmesan generously over the hot broccoli—let it melt slightly.
4. Serve & Enjoy
Plate immediately. The cheese crisps up as it cools, adding irresistible crunch.
