• Add the rest of the ghee if needed and throw in the onions, tomatoes and chopped chilli peppers.
• Cook until the onion is transparent and just beginning to turn a light brown.
• Add the garlic and cook for a further minute.
• Throw in the broccoli florets with the coconut milk and heat through. You want the broccoli to be tender but not mushy.
• Add salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
