Broccoli Stew with Polenta
I wanted to eat shrimps today and found some in the freezer. I looked for a recipe, but found nothing interesting. Then, I decided to try something out myself and ended up with this recipe – a hit in my opinion :) Easy, fast and tastes great. If you like broccoli and lemon, you will love this!
Ingredients for 2 persons:
1½ onion
olive oil
2 tsp curry
2 tsp dry parsley
1-2 tsp cayenne pepper
2 garlic cloves
400 g broccoli
1½ dl coconut milk
1 bouillon cube (vegetable)
1 canned butter beans
1½ dl pre-boiled shrimps
½ lemon
salt
chili flakes (optional)
Polenta:
1½ dl water
½ dl polenta
2 tsp ginger
salt
saffron (optional)
Directions:
- Chop and fry the onion in olive oil until soft
- Add curry, parsley, cayenne pepper and chopped garlic
- Add broccoli in pieces, stir for a couple of minutes
- Add coconut milk and bouillon
- When boiling, add the rinsed beans and the shrimps
- Boil on low heat until the broccoli is ready
- Cut two slices of the lemon for decoration and press the juice out of the rest into the stew
- Add salt depending on your taste and decorate with lemon and chili flakes
I recommend to serve this stew next to polenta and why not a couple of crispy onion rings like in the picture.
Directions for polenta:
- Add polenta in boiling water, boil on low heat until the water is absorbed
- Add ginger and salt, stir
- Saffron can be added to give a more intense color
- Remove from stove, cover and let it rest for ~10 min
- Shape the polenta into “buns” by using your hands
