Purple sprouting broccoli everything

Fruit and vegetables

2 garlic cloves, peeled, crushed lightly with the side of a knife and left whole

½ lemon, juice only

200g/7oz purple sprouting broccoli, trimmed

Tins, packets and jars

3 anchovy fillets, chopped (optional)

pinch dried chilli flakes

Cooking ingredients

sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 tbsp vegetable oil, for frying

Dairy, eggs and chilled

2 free-range eggs

Other

2 large slices ciabatta, toasted

Instructions

Method
Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat and add the purple sprouting broccoli and the garlic cloves. Stir-fry until the broccoli is just tender and the garlic is light golden-brown, then remove the garlic and discard.
Reduce the heat. Push the broccoli to one side of the pan and add the chilli flakes and anchovies (if using) to the oil. Cook for a minute, stirring, until the anchovies break down into a paste.
Add the lemon juice and toss everything together to coat the broccoli in the flavoured oil. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the broccoli to a bowl and keep warm.
Heat a little more oil in the frying pan and fry the eggs until cooked to your liking.
Serve the broccoli on the toasted ciabatta with the cooking juices drizzled over. Top each slice with a fried egg.
