Broccoli Besan Subji|Broccoli Stir Fry with Chickpea flour

Broccoli Besan Subji|Broccoli Stir Fry with Chickpea flour is a delicious and healthy stir fry made with broccoli, besan, garlic and few spices under 10 minutes.This makes a great side dish for rice or roti.

Broccoli is high in many nutrients, including fiber, vitamin C, vitamin K, iron and potassium.It also contains more protein than most other vegetables.

This dish is prepared at our home atleast once in a week since my family loves this.I usually make this as a side for rice and rasam.

I have also recently tried Zucchini Besan Subji it is as delicious as broccoli.
