BAKE THE BROCCOLI:)

Broccoli Cheese Bites

The broccolis are one of my favourite , with which I knew only to make  soups and parathas till now. Baking the broccoli is something which I learnt recently. Ever since I left my job, I had plenty of time at home, and finally  got to do something I Love .. and cooking is not something I learnt after wedding( as many food bloggers say).. Had this passion  since my secondary school days and it always motivated me to try new dishes and I have a husband who is a foodie who really encourages me and gives all feedbacks and forgives me by eating the same even when I had not made it up to the mark.

Broccoli cheese bites/ Broccoli cheddar is one recipe I came across a website and the recipe is as follows:
Mix 2 lighly beaten eggs with 2 torn fresh bread..Let the bread completely soften by the eggs, then add half cup cheddar cheese, 2-3 table spoons of mayonnaise, 1 1/2 tsp of salt and pepper, grated onions(1/2 cup) and 1/2 tsp lemon zest(grate the skin of lemon) . I added more salt and pepper to suit my taste. Meanwhile steam the broccolis for  (I used an idli pan) for 3 mins. Mince the steamed broccoli florets nicely and mix well with the above mentioned ingredients. I used a disposable baking pan. If u are using a metal pan, apply olive oil to the insides of the pan before pouring the mixture. Bake it till the top of the bites are light brown. I baked  it for 12mins.. I should tell that it tasted yumm..Appreciations from Husband.. What more do you want;)
