  • Add hing and saute for a while.
  • Add the broccoli, salt and mix well and cover the pan with a lid and let it cook for a while on a low flame. Keep stirring in between.
  • Add garam masala when broccoli is half cooked(the broccoli should not become very tender, it should be little crisp even after cooking).
