For a Serving Size of Two:

Ingredients:

  • 10 grams fresh mint leaves
  • 1 small green chili
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • In a blender or food processor, combine the steamed broccoli, coriander leaves, mint leaves, green chili, lemon juice, salt, roasted peanuts (if using), and cumin powder.
  • Blend until you achieve a smooth or slightly chunky consistency, depending on your preference. You can add a little water if needed to help with blending.
