Directions

Cut and discard the lower third of the broccoli stem. Cut off the broccoli florets and break into 1-inch pieces. Peel the remaining stem and cut into ½-inch pieces.
In a medium stockpot with a lid, place a steamer over, but not touching, boiling water. Put the sliced broccoli stems into the steam, cover and steam for 1-2 minutes. Add the florets, sprinkle with salt, and re-cover. Steam a further 3-4 minutes or until the broccoli florets are bright green and are tender, but still crisp.
While the broccoli is steaming make the Sesame Remoulade
Drain the broccoli in a colander, plunge into cold water if eating cold. Drain well and pat dry with paper towels. Transfer to a serving dish, drizzle with sesame remoulade sauce and toasted sesame.
