To start with cut the broccoli florets to the sizes you prefer and rinse well.

Blanch them in boiling water with little salt for 2 minutes. Remove and place them in ice water for a minute or two so that they retain the green colour. Drain and set aside.

Heat oil in a pan. Add cumin seeds. When they begin to crackle add dry chilli and chopped onion. Saute till onion turns translucent.

Now add broccoli florets. Add turmeric powder, chilli powder, salt and mix well. Keep in low flame and cook covered for 4-5 minutes or until broccoli is done. Stir occasionally in between to avoid sticking. If needed add little more oil.

Remove broccoli stir fry to a serving plate. Serve with rice, roti or as side item.
