Broccoli Stir fry with ginger and fennel powder tastes delicious and is a good side dish for rice. It is healthy veggie with its vibrant green color and distinct flavor.This is a very simple and quick stir fry but you will love the simple aroma of ginger and fennel combined.

Ingredients
Broccoli florets- 2 cup
Onion sliced- 1
Chopped ginger- 1 tsp
Fennel powder- 1/2 tsp
Chilly powder or flakes- 1/2 tsp
Mustard seeds- 1/3 tsp
curry leaves
Oil - 2tsp
Salt  to taste




Sprinkle a few drops of water and microwave broccoli in high for two minutes till it is crisp tender.( or steam broccoli florets in  water till cooked but it should retain its color and crispness)
Heat oil in a pan and when mustard seeds splutter add ginger and curry leaves and saute for a minute till you get a nice aroma. Now add onions and saute for a minute and add chilly powder and fennel powder and a pinch of salt. Drop in the broccoli florets and toss till well coated, but not more than 30 to 40 seconds. You can also add sesame seeds or sliced almonds if you like extra crunchiness.

Try this..
Hope you will all enjoy...
