Every lunar new year, this is one of my favourite dish to make because it’s easy, pretty and my kids eat broccoli. One can include or substitute a variety of items such as shiitake mushroom, prawns, tofu, clams, abalone.

Il gambo una vellutata o una dadolata in padella.
Le cime rendono la pasta invitante saporita e colorata!
Buon appetito!

Imagine there is a party and you are invited....
But what if no people are invited - instead the invitation says:
Bring on the broccoli!
So there are only vegetables and especially lots of broccoli - for obvious reasons.

We have the roasted Broc and his cheesy wife coming in a little late because Madame could not decide what to wear - cheddar coat or almond flakes.
There‘s lots of broccoli already on the dancefloor with their respective partners for life: from the highly respected potatoe, carrot and cauliflower families.
And even the ‚coolest‘ hipster in the bunch (who looks still a bit raw) is not above taking a selfie of this special event.
What a yummy party!
