Thanks a lot Priya for sharing such healthy n yummy recipe...I have tried so many recipes from her space n never got disappointed. Still have so many bookmarks to try :) Sure will make it soon n let u know. Thanks Priya for all your wonderful creations. First time,I made this chutney for lunch along with rice n papads. When i served it to my H, he did not recognize that its made out of Broccoli...tasted like the regular cilantro chutney. With curd rice it tasted so so yummy!! That day i couldn't click as i made it in hurry. Then again last week i made this chutney for our breakfast n had with dosa...that was also a yummy combo.
