Chef's Tips
For extra flavor, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the broccoli before roasting.
If you don't have Jersey cream, heavy cream or double cream can be substituted.
The broccoli can also be grilled instead of roasted for a smoky flavor.
To make it a more substantial meal, serve with a poached egg on top.
Make sure to not overcrowd the baking sheet for even cooking.
