Green Magic
Quick-maturing calabrese that gives you a big central head followed by weeks of side shoots. The broccoli for impatient people who still want proper flavour. Sow in spring, eat by summer.

Tenderstem with sesame dressing
Blanch or steam until bright green and just tender. Dress with soy sauce, sesame oil, a squeeze of lime, and a scatter of toasted sesame seeds. Five minutes, and it's the best side dish on the table.
