Broccoli Corn Masala

Hi Buddies,

This was our weekend lunch special !!! My hubby requested for a sunday special but to my disappointment found only few corns and broccoli  in my fridge.Left with no option,I planned to mixed them up and stir it with nice masala to make it interesting. I’m not a fan of broccoli but started liking it recently as it’s rich in folic acid and very healthy. As broccoli and corn would make the curry very dry, added some tomatoes to it.Surprisingly,it came out very yum and we all loved it a lot!!! Try this healthy and tasty recipe for sure!!!
