Ikea mat recept
Based on an Ikea recipe. I went to Ikea last week and, after buying Eilene a bunch of furniture for the updating of her room, I stopped off to buy Swedish meatballsfish egg pasteand pickled herring. I saw a thing called Grönsakskaka and—always interested in new things—I bought a box to go with the meatballs. Grönsakskaka are Swedish "ikea mat recept" and potato medallions—read small hockey pucks.
These were pretty good, but I did not want to drive a 50 mile round trip just to get more. I had to figure out how to make my own. I found the recipe online, but it had some problems.

Tip: Put the florets in a pot of cold water to stop them from cooking further. Note: At six minutes the top florets of the broccoli should be just cooked through, any longer and they would overcook. They can even be a bit under cooked, because they will be baked again.
Tip: Slice through the dark green tops about every ¼ inch until you have only the floret stem remaining. Chop the remaining stems into a ¼ inch dice. Note: Do not mash the delicate tips.
