Step-By-Step Instructions
- Start by steaming the broccoli florets in a microwave or on the stovetop until they are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and grease an 11x7-inch baking dish with olive oil.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add leeks and shallots and cook for 8-10 minutes. Stir in minced garlic for the last 1-2 minutes.
- Add dry white wine to the skillet and let it cook until mostly evaporated, about 3-4 minutes. Sprinkle in the flour, whisking continuously, then gradually add milk, stirring until thickened, about 4-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Fold in the steamed broccoli into the sauce, ensuring it's evenly coated.
- In a separate bowl, combine remaining olive oil with panko breadcrumbs, mixing until coated.
- Transfer the broccoli mixture into the baking dish and top with the panko breadcrumb mixture. Bake uncovered for about 20 minutes until bubbly and golden-brown.

Notes
Let casserole rest for a few minutes after baking to help the layers set before serving. Experiment with calciums to suit your palate.
