    Broccoli and Zucchini in Onion and Pickle Spices Curry. A delicious, easy and healthy curry to be served hot with Rotis, puris or Naan! Vegan Recipe. #glutenfree #veganricha #vegan


    Achari Broccoli and Zucchini! We usually make Achari Baingan (Eggplant in pickle curry) or Achari Gobi(Cauliflower in pickle spices). I had to finish the wilting broccoli, so I tried this combination and it worked pretty well!
     
     
    The curry is onion based and spices usually used in Indian pickles! This same curry can be used to make stuffed or stirfried baby eggplants(baingan), okra(bhindi) or bitter gourd(Karela)!. Just the spices can be roasted and powdered and added to any dry vegetable preparation as well! Hope you all like it!

      I’m not sure what I did wrong here, but the broccoli ended up overcooked and kind of spoiled the flavour, while the zucchini was only just done. Maybe I should have added more water and cooked it uncovered? The onion spice base was great though.

        i think i made this recipe when i used to dislike broccoli, so the purpose must have been over cooking it with the spices so i couldnt detect any broccoli 🙂
        You can add the broccoli later whenthe zucchini is almost done and cover and cook so the broccoli steams and stays vibrant and then mix well to coat the florets with the sauce.
