The 7 Day Detox Diet - Broccoli and Cauliflower in Velouté Sauce

Broccoli and Cauliflower in Velouté Sauce


Ingredients:
To prepare:

Prepare the sauce first so that you can set it aside and reheat before serving. In a sauce pan on low heat, place the flour and the butter. Mix the two, letting them cook into a paste. Add the chicken or vegetable broth and bring to a simmer while stirring. When the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, season to taste with salt and pepper and set the velouté aside.

Wash the broccoli and cauliflower thoroughly. Cut them up into small, bite-sized flowerettes. Peel and chop the garlic finely and set aside.

In a pan on medium heat, pour in the olive oil. When the oil is hot, toss in the chopped garlic and sauté but don’t let it brown. Add the broccoli and cauliflower and sauté. Cover the pan and let the vegetables cook until tender, sautéing occasionally.

When the vegetables are almost cooked, pour in the velouté, enough to coat the vegetables. Serve warm.
