BROCCOLI AND POTATO STIR FRY

Potato and broccoli fry tastes great with any rice preparation, roti or simply relish it like a healthy snack. The potatoes are crisp and the broccoli is cooked soft which makes it a nice combination. Try this and you're sure to like it.  


INGREDIENTS

Potato - 3 medium (cubed)
Broccoli - 1 whole (small size)
Mustard seeds - 1/4 tsp
Cumin seeds / Jeera - 1/4 tsp
Sambhar pwd - 11/2 tbsp
Turmeric - a pinch
Salt to taste

METHOD

Wash and clean the broccoli. Cut them into big florets, don't cut them into small pieces, it might get mashed while boiling. Boil the florets in a wide vessel with little salt for about 5 mins. Drain the water and let it cool.  In a non stick pan, add little oil, when hot add the mustard seeds and let it crackle then add the cumin seeds. Now add the cubed potatoes, turmeric, sambhar pwd and give a good mix. Cook till they turn little brown and then add the broccoli. Don't add water while cooking this, may be little oil if necessary. This gives a nice crisp to the potato but make sure it's cooked in non stick pan. Check for salt and turn off the heat. Serve hot.
