Method

Wash the broccoli and cut it into florets.
Our tip Drain the florets and pat them dry before they go into the marinade. Hung curd clings to dry broccoli; water left in the florets thins it and it drips off.
Take a grinder jar, add all the ingredients mentioned in the “for making paste” section and grind into a smooth paste.
