     Title: Roasted Broccoli & Whipped Tofu w/Chile Crisp Crunch
Categories: Vegetables, Nuts, Chilies, Breads
     Yield: 4 servings

MMMMM--------------------------BROCCOLI-------------------------------
 1 1/2 lb Broccoli; in 1" florets
     4 tb Extra-virgin olive oil
     2 ts Soy sauce
          Salt and black pepper
     1 cl Garlic; thinly sliced
   1/2 c  Coarse chopped cashews
     1 tb Chile crisp, plus more for
          - serving if you like
   1/3 c  Panko bread crumbs

MMMMM---------------------CASHEW CREAM (OPT--------------------------
    14 oz Drained silken tofu
     1 c  Cashew butter

 Set the oven @ 400ºF/205ºC.\

 Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil. Add the
 broccoli, drizzle with 3 tablespoons olive oil and the
 soy sauce, season lightly with salt and pepper, and toss
 to coat. Arrange in an even layer, then dot with the
 garlic.

 Tightly wrap the broccoli mixture with another piece of
 aluminum foil, sealing shut, and bake until
 crisp-tender, about 15 minutes.

 While the broccoli bakes, prepare the chile crisp bread
 crumbs: Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a
 medium skillet over medium. Add the cashews, season to
 taste with salt and pepper and cook, stirring
 frequently, until fragrant, about 3 minutes.

 Add the chile crisp to the cashews, then stir in the
 panko and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until
 the panko is toasted, 2 to 3 minutes. Season to taste
 and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

 If using cashew cream, add the tofu, cashew butter and 6
 tablespoons water to a small food processor; blend until
 fluffy. Season generously with salt and pepper, then
 spread it on a serving platter or shallow bowl.

 Arrange the cooked broccoli on top, drizzle with
 additional chile crisp, if desired, and sprinkle
 generously with the chile crisp topping. Serve
 immediately, with any additional chile crisp crunch
 on the side.
