It's always great to find new ways to prepare veggies. This was a great, and surprisingly rich, dish. I would definitely make this again but would use less broth to thicken the dish up. Although the cream and butter make this dish more dynamic, I would perhaps use no/less cream and butter to reduce the fat content.
