  • Brussels Sprouts: I have used fresh brussels sprouts. You may also use frozen once, cooking time will vary.

  • Garlic and Ginger: minced or finely chopped, or paste.
  • Onion: I have finely chopped the onions.
  • Tomato: I have used Roma tomatoes to make the base for this dish. You can also puree the tomatoes instead and add them or use canned tomato sauce or crushed tomatoes.

  • Lime juice: use fresh lime juice whenever possible or use amchur powder (dry mango powder) for tartness.
