Speaking of vegetables, some people may not like to eat them, but in fact most people still like to eat them, especially some vegetables that are green, healthy, and easier to fry, such as lettuce, Spinach or something.

Broccoli is also called cauliflower abroad. It looks very similar to the white cauliflower commonly seen in my country. They are all in clusters. In clusters, the stems are hard and the cauliflowers are also relatively hard, and they all grow very densely. It is precisely because they look like this that they are difficult to fry. After all, no matter how they are cut into pieces, as long as they are not chopped into pieces, they will be heated unevenly.
This is the key reason why broccoli is difficult to fry, so many people choose to blanch it first, so as to ensure that the broccoli is completely cooked, and they will not worry about not frying it properly later. Keep sautéing, causing the broccoli to burn. However, blanching it first and then frying it actually has some disadvantages. The most fatal one is that most of the taste and nutrients will be lost. The taste will also be worse, and it will not taste crispy at all, which especially affects appetite.
Since frying directly is afraid of undercooking or being burned, and blanching it first will destroy the nutritional value and texture of broccoli, we should change the method. So what exactly should be done? In fact, the idea of ????blanching is correct. We should fry the broccoli first or until it is half cooked. In this way, the subsequent cooking time can be greatly reduced. If the cooking time is reduced, it will naturally no longer be fried.
So how should we fry the broccoli until it is cooked or half-cooked without destroying its texture and flavor? The answer is simple: dry stir-fry. Heat the pot, and then pour the broccoli directly into the pot. Because broccoli itself has a lot of water, as long as you control the heat, it will not burn at all.
Now, everyone knows how to fry broccoli. Remember to try it next time.
