Recipe video above. I think that roasting is the best way to cook broccolini. It brings out the flavour and you get crunchy golden tips - the best part! It makes a wonderful side dish eaten plain, but if you drizzle it with a simple Tahini Sauce and sprinkle with nuts, it becomes company-worthy as an impressive side dish OR a main served with crusty bread or stuffed into flatbreads.Especially brilliant served with all things Middle Eastern.
