Broccolini with Fresh Cherries, Pistachios & Mozzarella

This plate is summer distilled into a single dish. It sounds almost too simple to be this good, and yet that is exactly its charm. It comes together in under 15 minutes and belongs on the table at a long lunch in the sun just as naturally as it does on a quiet weeknight plate ;).

Step 1

Rinse the broccolini thoroughly under cold running water, running your fingers along the stems to remove any grit. Shake off the excess water. Trim the very bottom of each stem — roughly 1–2 cm — so they're all a similar length and will cook evenly.

Notes

Adaptations:

  • When cherries are out of season, halved strawberries, fresh figs, or sliced plums all carry the same sweet-tart quality that balances the mozzarella so well.

  • If you can't find broccolini, tenderstem broccoli or regular broccoli cut into long thin florets works perfectly — just adjust the blanching time slightly longer for thicker stems.

  • For a richer version, substitute the fresh mozzarella with burrata and let it spill open on the plate — the effect is dramatic and delicious.

  • The pistachios can be swapped for toasted pine nuts or crushed walnuts.

  • A drizzle of good honey over the mozzarella alongside or instead of the balsamic adds a beautiful floral sweetness, particularly lovely with the cherries.

  • This plate also works well with a thin slice of good sourdough or rye bread on the side to scoop up the dressing.

Macros are provided for reference (of course, the accuracy of these can vary due to adaptations of the ingredients or slightly different amounts/portion sizes), but at THV we don't obsess over numbers — No stress. No guilt. Just nourishment ❤︎⁠!
