You know how black garlic has this amazing umami depth that makes everything taste restaurant quality? Well, I've built this entire dish around it. The earthy, sweet black garlic pairs beautifully with a perfectly seared steak, while the Jerusalem artichoke purée underneath adds this creamy, nutty base that's naturally lower in calories than potato. What I love most about this recipe is that it comes together in under an hour, which is perfect for weeknight dinners, and the Jerusalem artichokes are genuinely budget friendly. The tenderstem broccoli and bright lemon finish everything off with freshness and vitality.
