Broccoli Carrot Fry

I always have broccoli in my fridge. My hubby needs it daily in his oats meal and my children love broccoli in any form. I make this dish at least 4 times a week. 
Broccoli is a very healthy vegetable and its packed with soluble fiber that draws cholesterol out of your body. Broccoli is a good carb and it is high in fiber, which aids in digestion, prevents constipation, maintains low blood sugar and curbs overeating.
Ingredients
Broccoli florets – 2 cups, chopped
Carrot – 2 medium, thinly diced
Onion – 1, thinly sliced
Turmeric powder – 1 teaspoon
Chilli powder – ½ teaspoon
Salt – to taste
Oil- 2 table spoons













Method
Wash broccoli twice in plain water.
Mix ½ teaspoon turmeric powder and salt in some water. Wash broccoli in this water again and drain it.
Heat oil in a pan and saute onion until brown. Add turmeric powder, chilli powder and salt. Mix well.
Add chopped broccoli & carrot and stir well. Cover and cook for 5 minutes. Uncover and stir for a minute.
It’s a tasty side dish for plain rice or chapati. Enjoy!!!
