Curried Broccoli Toasties Food

BROCCOLI CURRY - MY FAVOURITE VEGETARIAN MEAL

Steps:

• Heat some water and steam the broccoli florets until just cooked. You should just be able to stick a fork into the side of the florets but there should be some resistance. Set aside.
• Now heat a large frying pan or wok over medium heat and add half the ghee or oil. Throw in the ginger, coconut, sesame seeds, peanuts, chilli powder and turmeric and cook for about three minutes stirring the ingredients about the pan with a spatula.
• Add the rest of the ghee if needed and throw in the onions, tomatoes and chopped chilli peppers.
• Cook until the onion is transparent and just beginning to turn a light brown.
• Add the garlic and cook for a further minute.
• Throw in the broccoli florets with the coconut milk and heat through. You want the broccoli to be tender but not mushy.
• Add salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
• As you can see, this broccoli curry can be made in minutes. Teamed with a little saffron rice or chewy home made naan bread it is the perfect mid week family meal or side or main dish for an exotic dinner party.
• I would really like to know how you get on with this recipe. The important thing is that you try it as it really is amazing. Be sure to stop back and leave a comment.

Roast the broccoli for 15 minutes to get it flavorful and tender. Set it aside when it is done but keep the oven on. Then start on the chicken mixture. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Brown the chicken in the olive oil until it is cooked through and golden for about 5 minutes. While it cooks season it with the curry powder, dried onion, garlic powder and seasoned salt.
• Once the chicken is cooked pour in the white wine and let it cook off for a minute. Then pour in the condensed soup and ranch dressing and let it cook for another couple of minutes. Take the pan off of the heat and stir in 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese and the broccoli. Then get out a 9 x 13 baking dish and spray it well with cooking spray. Layer the rice in first.

Let it set for 2-3 minutes when it is done, then serve immediately while it is hot!
