Broccoli is said to be the most hatred vegetable after Brussels Sprouts. Even I have to make verious attempts to inculde this wonder veg in our diet. Sometimes in the parantha, sometimes in rice, this has been an invisible supplement in our daily meals. My hubby doesnt like the texture of Broccoli, even Cauliflower.. tsk tsk .. :(
But when I saw this recipe on a blog and tried it last week.... Or bas, Brocoli Brocoli naa rahi :) :)
