Preparation

Step 1

Bring the water to a boil. Add the broccoli and cook for about 2 minutes, then transfer to a colander and immediately run under cold water to stop the cooking process.
In a medium bowl, mix all the ingredients, except the salt and pepper, until just combined. Season with salt and pepper and chill until serving.
