Broccolini with Hazelnut Paste & Crackling

Directions:

• 1First start with the paste. Place the hazelnuts in a small pot with the oat milk. Bring up to the boil and reduce to simmer, cook for 15–20 minutes or until the nuts have been softened.
• 2Place them in a blender and blitz until textured but not smooth. Then dice up the preserved lemon wedges and mix them through the hazelnut paste.
• 3Put a pan on the stove on medium high heat and add in the oil. While the oil is heating up, take any drier tips off the base of the broccolini stems (about a cm) and when the pan is roasting hot, place in the broccolini. Do not touch and leave to fry on 1 side for 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• 4Finally add 50ml of water and put a lid on to let them steam for 3 more minutes.
• 5For the crackling heat the oil to 180°C, and place in small broken up sheets of the tofu skin. Fry for a couple of minutes and then pull out; while it's hot, sprinkle with yeast flakes, salt and pepper.
• 6Plate up a generous scoop of hazelnut paste, lay the broccolini across it, and break up the crackling to sprinkle it over top. Season with a touch of lemon zest and a drizzle of olive oil.
