Salt and Pepper Broccoli

Few weeks back we went to a restaurant, there i ordered salt and pepper prawns, that was the first time i tasted it and loved the cruchy prawns along with the onion, ginger and garlic. There were no sauces going in that. I loved the fact that the taste of prawns was dominating in the dish and not the sauces.

WHile it will taste good, deep frying broccoli takes out all the health benefits and makes it a very unhealthy dish.
