Not sure why it didn't quite turn out right. Seemed to lack flavour, felt like something was missing. Also, there was this pool of sauce lying at the bottom of the bowl... will try it again though, with a little less sauce.

Love the red pepper touch! Very nice presentation and very tasty. Next time I make it I will increase the sauce a bit (and I will be making this again) Thanks for a great broccoli recipe
