Ingredients:

Broccoli 1 big head

Bread crumbs - 1/3 cup

Garlic cloves - 1 tsp, minced/grated

Extra Virgin Olive oil - 2 tsp

Parmesan cheese - 2 tbsp

Crushed red chilli flakes - 1/2 tsp, to taste

Salt - to taste

Lemon - 1/2 , to drizzle the juice at the end

Method:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Soak the skewers in cool water.
• Spread the bread crumbs into a cake pan and place into the oven for 2 minutes or until lightly toasted. Remove the bread crumbs from the oven and add to the bowl  and mix with olive oil, garlic, salt, crushed chilli flakes, Parmesan cheese and set aside.
• Cut the broccoli florets into bite size pieces. Cut the stalk into 1/8-inch thick, round slices. Place the broccoli into a mixing bowl and toss with the bread crumbs mixture.
• Toss to combine. Thread the broccoli florets on the skewers. Return the skewers to the cake pan, place in the oven and roast just until the broccoli is tender, 8 to 10 more minutes. 
• Take the skewers out of the oven and drizzle with little bit of lemon juice and serve hot with yogurt dip.

For yogurt dip : 

Yogurt - 1/2 cup
A pinch of salt
A pinch of turmeric powder
