Healthy Baked Broccoli Tots
June 10, 2019
Edit
Those little toddlers are very just like the cauliflower little toddlers recipe I shared some months in the past, except they're made with broccoli and are a bit extra simpler to deal with and form. hey're additionally lots plenty tastier ( now not that the cauliflower toddlers aren’t suitable, they are indeed! ).
To make those children you’re going to want to blanch 2 cups of broccoli in boiling water, just for a few seconds. Then cube the broccoli into tiny pieces. You could also pulse the broccoli in a food process for some seconds however then you'll hazard turning them into a puree. If whatever plus then no greater than 2-3 pluses and stop once you reach a “rice” texture.
INGREDIENTS :
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup diced yellow onion
- 1/3 cup cheddar cheese
- 1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/3 cup italian breadcrumbs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons parsley ( or cilantro rosemary,
- 2 cups or 12 ounces uncooked or frozen broccoli
INSTRUCTIONS :
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Grease a baking sheet with a thin layer of oil or line with parchment paper and set aside.
- Blanch the broccoli in boiling water for 1 minute then remove and shock with cold tap water to stop the cooking process. Drain well.
- Chop broccoli finely and mix throughly with the egg, onions, cheddar, breadcrumbs, and seasoning. Scoop about 1.5 tablespoons of mix using a ice-cream scoop or your hands and gently press between your hands into a firm ball then shape into a tater-tot shape. It helps to wash your hands after every few tots to keep them from sticking onto your hands. Next, Place on your prepared baking sheet.
- Bake until golden brown and crispy, 18-24 minutes, turning half way. Remove from the oven and enjoy hot with ketchup, sriracha, ranch dressing, or your favorite dipping sauce!
