Ingredients

• 500 grams broccoli florets
• 200 grams sour cream
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Fill a medium-sized saucepan with water and bring it to a boil. Add a pinch of salt to the water.

Step 2

Wash the broccoli florets thoroughly. Once the water is boiling, add the broccoli and cook for 3-4 minutes until tender but still crisp. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the skillet, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the sour cream. Mix well to combine with the garlic and butter.

Step 5

Add the cooked broccoli to the skillet and toss gently to coat the florets in the sour cream mixture.

Step 6

Drizzle the lemon juice over the broccoli and season with salt and black pepper. Stir gently to meld the flavors.

Step 7

Transfer the broccoli with sour cream to a serving dish. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.

Step 8

Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy!
