1 large head broccoli
⅓ cup panko breadcrumbs
⅓ cup fresh chives, chopped
⅔ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 clove garlic, minced
½ teaspoon salt, divided

Steps:

  • Grate the broccoli with a coarse cheese grater.
  • Transfer the grated bits to a medium bowl and season with a ¼ teaspoon of the salt. Mix the broccoli until well incorporated.
  • Let the broccoli sit for 20 minutes until the salt has drawn out some of the moisture.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Pour the broccoli into a clean kitchen towel and twist to strain as much liquid as you can.
  • Place the grated broccoli back into a bowl and mix with the breadcrumbs, chives, cheddar, garlic, remaining ¼ teaspoon of salt, pepper, and egg, and mix until well combined.
  • Form the mixture into 15 even sized tots and transfer to a parchment lined baking sheet.

  • Serve with your choice of dipping sauce.
  • Enjoy!
