Recipe - Broccoli Smothered In Garlic Oil

1 bn Broccoli, about 1 One half pounds
3 tablespoon Light vegetable oil
8 Cloves garlic, peeled (up to
10)
1/3 teaspoon Tumeric
1 teaspoon Kosher salt

Cut broccoli into spears, leaving long stems attached to the flowerets.
Peel the stems carefully, they break easily. Rinse the spears under cold
running water. Leave them for 5 minutes to drain.

Heat the oil over mediumhigh heat in a frying pan large enough to
accommodate the broccoli in a single layer. When oil is hot, add garlic,
and saute, turning and tossing until it turns golden, about 1 to 2 minutes.
Add tumeric and immediately follow it with the broccoli. Spread the
broccoli so that it lies in one layer. Let it sizzle undisturbed for 1
minute, then sprinkle on the salt. Turn the broccoli carefully with a flat
spatula or a pair of tongs, and saute for an additional minute.

Reduce heat and cook, covered, until the broccoli is cooked but still crisp
and dark green, about 8 to 10 minutes. Uncover, and continue cooking until
all the moisture evaporates and the broccoli spears are glazed with garlic
oil about 3 to 5 minutes. Check for salt and serve immediately.

Yield: 4 to 6 persons
