  7. Garlic - 2 cloves chopped fine
  8. Turmeric powder - 1/2 tsp
  9. mustard seeds - 1/2 tsp
  10. Oil - 1 tsp
Method:
Heat oil in a pan and add the mustard seeds.
When it splutters add the curry leaves,chopped garlic, onion , turmeric powder and green chillies and saute until it starts turning light brown.
Add in the cut broccoli and salt to taste and stir fry for 2 minutes( Broccoli should not be overcooked , it tastes much better undercooked)
