Step 3: Drain well and transfer the broccoli to a cutting board.
Step 4: Slice the broccoli florets into tiny pieces with a large sharp knife.
Step 5: Combine the chopped broccoli, eggs, Parmesan, flour, and garlic in a medium-sized bowl. To taste, season with salt and pepper. Stir well.
Step 6: Heat oil in a cast iron or non-stick pan over medium heat and swirl to coat the pan with oil.
