Cut broccoli into small bite size pieces, like we cut for cauliflower. Wash the florets well and put it in warm water for 5 minutes, then drain to keep aside. This is to clean as well as avoid worms if any. Then cook(parboil) broccoli with water, turmeric powder and salt. Drain water and set aside. Heat a pan with oil, add mustard seeds and jeera, allow it to crackle. Then add ginger garlic paste sauté for a min, then add onions and fry till it turns transparent.

Add the pepper powder, sambar powder and required salt. Now stir well and add the broccoli florets and mix well again. Keep in low flame and allow it to coo for 3 minutes till the spice powders are blended. Switch off and serve hot.
