- 150g edamame beans

Step 1. Trim the tenderstem in half make sure no one piece is longer than 7 –8cm and then place directly in boiling salted water on a rolling boil for approx. 2 minutes.
Step 2 . Use a slotted spoon to lift the tenderstem out of the water before they are fully cooked as there will be cooking carry over – check that the stems are al dente (cooked with a bite) and the florets are not limp then plunge into iced water (this means that the broccoli stops cooking immediately and remains bright in colour)
Step 3. Pour the olive oil into a saucepan and add the blanched tenderstem, peas and edamame beans, cook on a high heat for about 3 minutes, get lots of colour and season well with salt and pepper
