Method

Heat some water in a medium saucepan. When boiling, add cauliflower and broccoli florets and blanch for 2 mins. Drain and set aside. Preheat the oven to 200°C / 180°C fan / Gas Mark 6. Line an oven tray with parchment paper.

Mix polenta and dry herbs together in a shallow bowl. Beat the eggs into another shallow bowl.

Place oven tray in front of you, along with the cauliflower and broccoli florets. Place beaten eggs, polenta mix and parmesan in individual bowls and line up in a line. Coat each cauliflower and broccoli floret in the beaten eggs, polenta mix and parmesan so that they are coated all over.
