Purple Sprouting Broccoli
This beautiful vegetable has a much more delicate flavour than standard broccoli and it’s in season right now. It just needs light cooking and is delicious simply steamed, boiled or even stir-fried. The leaves, heads and stalks are all edible but you may want to trim the stalk to avoid toughness and take off a few of the outer leaves.

I don't like regular broccoli but sprouting is a delicious, seasonal treat! Lovely pictures too!
I think that Goon must be the only person in the world who prefers normal broccoli to purple sprouting. It causes a few arguments in the supermarkets. Fortunately it's either a case of me winning or no dinner. ;)
Hee hee - I like it Ros!
