Chunky Broccoli and Corn Dip ( Microwave Recipe)
by Tarla Dalal
Here is a creamy white sauce based dip with toothsome chunks of broccoli and sweet corn, which are microwaved for just the right time to remove their raw smell while retaining their exciting crunch. Onions add to the aroma and improve the texture of this dip further, while a seasoning of chilli flakes adds a bit of spice to it. The Chunky Broccoli and Corn Dip gets done very fast when cooked in the microwave oven as shown here, but make sure you have it fresh and hot.
