- Parboil the broccoli in salted water for 10 minutes.
- Heat the oil and butter in frying pan.

- Drain the broccoli, add to the skillet and mix well
- Stir in the cashew cream and simmer for 10 minutes.

I LOVE the idea of being organised enough to have a “weekly dinner party” … cooking I can do, but getting it together each and every week to have people round …. it makes my head hurt just thinking about it!
