Quite a different way to cook broccoli and we did enjoy it. The roasting brought out 'nutty' flavours in the vege and the cheese was a great addition. I wouldn't have thought of cooking brocoli this way-but still my fave way to cook/eat broccoli is steaming. *Reviewed for Aussie NZ Forum May Recipe Swap 08* Photo also to be posted

What a wonderful way to preapare broccoli. The roasting really highlighted the flavor of the broccoli and the olive oil and asiago cheese enhanced it. It went very nicely with roasted lamb and would be great with other roasted meats. We'll be making this one again. Thanks A la Carte!
