Want to include Broccoli in your diet without comprising on taste? Search no more, this recipe is for you.


I came across this recipe while looking for different broccoli dishes since I just knew to stir fry them. The kababs and the sauce are two separate dishes which just go well together here.



It takes about 40mins to prepare 2 servings using this recipe.


 

Ingredients:

  • Garam masala - 1/4 tsp

  • Aamchur powder - 1/4 tsp

  • Coriander leaves - 2 stems

  • Besan - 2 tsp

For the sauce:
  • Broccoli - 8-10 big florets [blanched]
