Atul Kochhar’s Warm Salad of Ten­der­stem Broc­coli and Chickpeas

(serves four)

2 tbsps olive oil
1 tsp cumin seeds
2 cloves gar­lic, peeled and sliced very thin
1–2 small red chill­ies, deseeded and finely chopped
2 hand­fuls ten­der­stem broc­coli, cut into whole flo­rets with stems sliced diag­o­nally in bite-size pieces
1 can chick­peas, drained
1 medium red onion, thickly sliced
1 medium red pep­per, juli­enned
2 tbsps lime juice
sea salt
freshly ground black pep­per
hand­ful fresh corian­der (cilantro)

Heat the oil in a skil­let or wok and add the cumin seeds and gar­lic, cook­ing until the gar­lic is translu­cent but tak­ing care not to brown it. Add the chillis and broc­coli and cook until ten­der. Add the chick­peas, onion and red pep­per and saute for 30 sec­onds. Toss with the lime juice and serve on a plat­ter, topped by the corian­der leaves. Very refreshing!
