Caramelized Broccoli

Description: This is a fried broccoli side dish that is so good.. This is more of a technique than a recipe. Very easy, and my kids love it.

Ingredients:

• 1 bunch fresh broccoli, trimmed and cut into spears
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil
• salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

1. Heat a large skillet over medium high heat and add the oil.
2. Add the broccoli and stir well to coat with the oil. Season to taste with s/p.
3. Fry until the broccoli turns brown from the sugars caramelizing. Just leave it alone until it starts to brown on the bottom before turning it.
4. The result is crispy, sweet, almost candy-like.
5. No, it's not burnt - it's CARAMELIZED. LOL.
