Donald Trump may have given the broccoli and sweet corn samosa whipped up for his visit, a pass. You don't have to. Here are seven Indian dishes where the healthy veggie makes an appearance

The US president's India visit made much news and amidst it, social media went wild over the revelation of a special samosa prepared for the American visitors, which used the healthy broccoli. While Trump may have steered clear of the snack, Indian preparations in the city with the humble vegetable are aplenty. Here's a list of restaurants experimenting with the healthier cousin of the familiar gobi, desi style.
Sour and creamy
This chilli-dipped tandoori broccoli has a tinge of sour and the chilled crème fraîche balances the heat. "We wanted to use broccoli in its nascent form as it has a nutty taste. We added pungency with the chilli and balanced it out with the chilled crème fraîche, which is basically yogurt and cream cured over 48 hours," Prashant Issar, co-founder, says.
