Ingredients
Steps
1-Wash the Romanesco broccoli well, remove the leaves and with a very sharp knife cut the broccoli into finger-sized slices, taking care not to break them.
2-Slightly remove the hardest part of the central part of the torso, not the florets.
3-Put the breadcrumbs in a bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper and the chopped parsley. In another bowl beat the eggs, and in another the flour.
4-Pass all the broccoli slices, first in the flour, then in the beaten eggs and then in the breadcrumbs, pressing well with your hands so that the breadcrumbs adhere perfectly.
5-Place the ready slices on a baking sheet, I used this non-stick one, lined with lightly oiled baking paper. Sprinkle the slices with another drop of oil and bake at 180 degrees for 25 minutes. Serve hot..Enjoy!
Notes
