Sesame sauce

1. Add the sesame paste, soy sauce, vinegar, mirin and lemon juice, then enough dashi stock to make a sauce that is the consistency of single cream.
2. Taste the sauce and adjust if necessary to your preferred balance of sweet, salty and sour.

2. Place the broccoli on a serving plate and dress generously with the sesame sauce.
