Submitted by alvinakatz

"I was looking for a new way to cook brussels sprouts. We like Indian food, and I like my brussel sprouts browned, not boiled. Brussesl sprouts are not an Indian vegetable, so I had to invent this recipe. It was a hit. The recipe needs 1 teaspoon Chhaya's all-purpose powder recipe #446677, but I couldn't enter it into ingredients,"
