    Wonderful! Made as directed but when I had boiled the broccoli I put it in a hot pan with the sauce to allow it to reduce a bit, I found this intensified the flavours and solved the problem of it being too "saucy". Even the carnivore other half liked this! top marks!

    Nice dish with mild, interesting flavors. A real no hassle recipe. I doubled the sauce, didn't find there was too much of it, but still it was rather bland.

    This was definitely different, but I found the nutty flavour a bit overwhelming and the sauce a little runny. I poured it over the broccoli, but then drained most of it off because the broccoli was just swimming in it. This would be good with an Asian meal, maybe along egg fried rice and a main meat course.

    DH loved this broccoli and so did I, it had a nice nutty flavour that complimented the broccoli. I just made half a recipe, just two of us, there didn't seem to be too much dressing, maybe because I only made half a recipe, we will make this again, thanks for sharing.
