Churn your vegetables from time to time and check by pressing against them with your cooking spoon whether they are already soft. Everybody enjoys his broccoli cooked to a different degree. Whenever you feel it is soft and nice to eat, turn off your stove and finally mix the mango powder into the dish. It will give it an exciting sourly taste which blends in nicely with the other spices and the natural taste of the vegetables.
Ayurvedic Benefits
Broccoli is a Vata increasing vegetable that simultaneously pacifies Kapha. Capsicum increases Pitta and slightly Vata while it pacifies Kapha. The combination is thus good for people with excessive Kapha. As we used a combination of cumin and ginger, the dish will also not increase your Vata.
