STEPS

Steps
1Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) Fan. Add frozen broccoli (take it directly from the freezer) to an oiled casserole dish, preferably cast iron.
2Roast in the middle of the oven for 10 minutes.
3In the meantime, make the roux. Add milk, nutritional yeast, cornstarch, olive oil, onion powder, garlic powder and salt to a small saucepan (18 cm ~ 7 inch).
4Whisk to combine.

SAVAGE MODE

Savage mode

 

  1. Line a baking tray with two layers of baking paper for easy cleanup. Roast the Broccoli: Spread frozen broccoli florets directly onto the lined tray.
  2. Roast for 10 minutes until they start to brown.
  3. Chop On the Tray: Using a spatula or knife, roughly chop the broccoli directly on the tray—no need for a cutting board.
  4. Mix in the Sauce: Pour the prepared sauce right onto the tray. Stir everything together with a spatula.
  5. Top & Press: Sprinkle the breadcrumbs evenly over the top. Use the flat side of a spatula to press them down into the mixture.
  6. Final Bake: Pop the tray back in the oven for another 10 minutes until golden and crispy.
  7. Eat Straight from the Tray: Grab a fork, dig in, and enjoy your zero-fuss, minimal-cleanup broccoli gratin.
