Step-by-step cooking

Cooking time: 30 min

Step 1:
Prepare all the necessary products. Choose cabbage of a bright green color, broccoli heads should also be elastic to the touch. It is quite possible to use frozen cabbage, only in this case it is necessary to defrost it correctly: after the freezer, put the cabbage in the refrigerator for 6-8 hours and only then finally defrost it at room temperature. Then be sure to drain the released liquid and dry the broccoli inflorescences a little.
Step 2:
Wash the broccoli well. It is best to do this with hot water or use a special tool for washing vegetables. Cabbage inflorescences are quite small and a lot of dirt can accumulate there. Remove the main stalk and cut into inflorescences of not very large size.
Step 3:
Take out the bowl of the slow cooker, pour in the vegetable oil. The oil can be any vegetable, from corn to olive, but it must be refined - only refined oils can be subjected to heat treatment.
Step 4:
In the same place, put the broccoli in the bowl of the slow cooker. If you wish, at this stage you can add some of your favorite herbs and seasonings to the dish: ground hot pepper will be enough for someone, a clove of garlic or garlic powder will give piquancy to someone, and someone will like a pinch of Provencal herbs. Focus on your taste.
Step 5:
Add a little salt to the cabbage. If you are preparing a dish within the framework of a healthy lifestyle, you can do without salt. I have regular table salt, but I recommend using coarse sea salt. Turn on the extinguishing mode. As a rule, in standard slow cookers, the cooking time in this mode starts from 30 minutes. Therefore, if your device model allows, reduce it to 7-10 minutes. We don't need the cabbage to turn into porridge, but we need it to preserve the maximum of the pol
Step 6:
The healthy side dish is ready. This broccoli turns out to be a bright green color, thereby showing that it has retained the maximum of useful substances. Bon appetit!
