Roasted, blanched, steamed or stir fried, Bellaverde has all the versatility of broccoli but with a more elegant appearance. Of course, regular broccoli will work just as well in the recipes below.
GINGER AND HOISIN Heat a little oil in a wok, add finely chopped ginger and cook for 30 seconds. Add the Bellaverde and cook for a further few minutes before adding a couple of tablespoons of soy and hoisin sauce. Continue to cook, tossing and coating the Bellaverde in the sauce for 2–3 minutes until cooked and well coated in the sauce.
