Crushed broccoli in the oven is a modern take on roasted vegetables, combining ease of preparation with rich flavors. This recipe was born from the search for the perfect balance between crispy texture and deep aromas. Blanching the broccoli before roasting makes it tender inside, while crushing provides more surface for caramelization. Garlic oil seeps into the fibers, enhancing the natural sweetness of the vegetable, while chili flakes add spiciness. A sauce made from Greek yogurt, soy sauce, and sriracha brings creamy freshness and a hint of heat. A sprinkle of toasted sesame adds nutty notes. This dish is perfect as a standalone snack but also complements meat and fish dishes beautifully. Light, fragrant, with a rich aftertaste — it transforms ordinary broccoli into something extraordinary.

Frittata with broccoli and sweet pepper is a classic Italian omelette. The main ingredient here is not eggs, but coarsely chopped vegetables, so there should be a lot of them. The eggs only fix the structure. The result is a voluminous, textured and beautiful dish. The frittata is first fried in a frying pan, and then sent to the oven - so that the middle hardens, and the edges do not dry out. If you do not have an oven, cover the frying pan tightly with a lid and reduce the heat. There are many varieties of frittata. In Naples, they even add pasta to it.
