Why shop in supermarkets when our Fountains Herb Farm broccoli comes straight to you! Tenderstem broccoli is a nutritious, versatile vegetable with a lovely sweet flavour and tender stalks — and the best part is that you can eat almost the whole thing! 🌱

🥦 Why eat Tenderstem Broccoli?

High in vitamins C & K – supports immunity and healthy bones.

Good source of fibre – great for digestion.

Contains antioxidants and other plant compounds.

Lower in calories but very satisfying.

The stalks are tender, so there’s very little waste.

🍋 Delicious ways to use it

Roast: Toss with olive oil, salt & pepper and roast until slightly charred. Finish with lemon juice and Parmesan.

Pan-fry: Quickly sauté with garlic, olive oil and chilli flakes.

Steam: Keep it bright green and slightly crunchy, then add butter, lemon and seasoning.

Stir-fry: Add to Asian-style dishes with soy, ginger, garlic and sesame.

Pasta: Toss with pasta, garlic, olive oil, Parmesan and lemon.

Salads: Blanch briefly, cool and combine with feta, toasted almonds and a lemon dressing.

BBQ: Drizzle with olive oil and grill until charred — absolutely delicious!

Tip: Don’t overcook it. Tenderstem is best when it remains bright green with a little crunch. 🌿

Blanch for 2–3 minutes, then toss with olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, salt & pepper. Finish with Parmesan.

🥗 Broad Bean & Feta Salad
Broad beans + feta + mint + spring onions + lemon + olive oil. Add rocket or watercress.

🥑 Broad Bean Dip
Blend cooked beans with lemon, garlic, olive oil, salt & pepper. Delicious with toasted sourdough.

🍞 Broad Beans on Toast
Mash with olive oil, lemon, salt & pepper. Top with feta, Parmesan or a poached egg.

🍝 Broad Bean Pasta
Toss with garlic, lemon, Parmesan, olive oil and fresh herbs. Delicious with crispy pancetta.

🌱 Broad Bean & Pea Mash
Mash with mint, lemon and olive oil or butter – perfect with grilled fish or lamb.

Don’t overcook them! Fresh broad beans are at their best when just tender and still bright green.

• Good source of fibre for digestion
• Contains antioxidants
• Naturally low in calories
• Provides potassium and other important nutrients
🍴 WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH IT? Eat it raw – peel, slice and add to salads or a veggie platter. Make Kohlrabi slaw with lemon, yoghurt and herbs
Roast it with olive oil, salt & pepper
Add to stir-fries, soups and stews
Spiralise into “noodles”
Grate it into fritters
The young leaves are edible too – use like kale or cabbage leaves.

We love and grow Arum Lilies on Fountains Farm and often have enough to pop into our weekly veggie boxes.

They are native to SA, which makes us love them even more!
Tips for planting your own.
Plant 15cm deep and leave 30cm – 40cm between plants to give space for leaves. They're all about partial sunlight and nothing harsh, so find them a spot with a good sun/ shade balance. Avoid planting in dry soil. Instead use moist, humus-rich soil.
