Spent a week eating my way through London and the one thing I cannot stop thinking about is the Chili Broccoli Salad from @dishoom š¤¤ And bless them for posting this recipe online because I donāt know what I would have done without it. I made a few tweaks to adjust to my taste and what my grocery store had in stock. Youāll notice I use jalapeƱos instead of red chilies because the two stores I went to didnāt have them and I wanted to make sure the recipe was super accessible to all. I personally think it tastes just the same, if not better! You guys will be OBSESSED with this recipe šš¼ Thank you Dishoom for introducing me to these incredible flavors. Itās a must when visiting London!
