BROCCOLI GRATIN

Steps:

• Place a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Butter an 8-by-8-by-2-inch baking dish or an 8-cup gratin dish.
• Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour until smooth. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the milk, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and nutmeg and bring to a boil while whisking constantly. Lower the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the white sauce is thickened, about 10 minutes. Season with pepper. Remove from the heat.
• Meanwhile, bring about 1-inch of water to a boil in a large saucepan and set up a collapsible steamer on top. Put the broccoli in the steamer and season with salt. Cover, and steam until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Put the broccoli in the prepared dish, sprinkle with half of the cheese and pour on the sauce. Cover with the remaining cheese.
• Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bread crumbs and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Cover the gratin with the bread crumbs. Bake until lightly browned and bubbly, about 20 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• 2. Bring a large saucepan of well-salted water to a boil over high heat. Cut the heads from the broccoli stalks and cut the heads into small florets. Peel the stalks and thinly slice. Add the broccoli to the boiling water and cook 2 minutes. Transfer the broccoli to a bowl filled with ice water, then drain well.
• 3. In a 10-inch fry pan, melt butter over medium heat. Add the flour and stir until well incorporated and fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Slowly whisk in the milk and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, add the onion and bay leaf and simmer, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens, about 8 minutes. Remove and discard the bay leaf and add the cheese, stirring until the cheese is melted. Season with salt and pepper. Carefully fold in the broccoli and spread in an even layer in a well greased baking dish.
• 4. In a small bowl, stir together the panko, parmesan cheese and olive oil - season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the panko mixture over the broccoli mixture. Bake until the gratin is golden and bubbly - 40=45 minutes. Let rest for 15 minutes before serving.
