South Indian Puy Lentil and Tenderstem Broccoli Stir Fry

Introduction

This is a quick and easy weeknight stir fry – if you serve it with rice or flatbreads, it’s all your food groups on one plate. Tenderstem broccoli is perfect for this dish as it retains its crunch and works beautifully with the simple mustard and cumin-infused frying oil. A teaspoon of chilli flakes will give you a good kick of heat in this dish; reduce by half if you’re after a milder dish.
