A burger with an exotic feel, this one can be made without much thought as broccoli is easily available in markets these days. The real flavour of this burger lies in cooking the broccoli to perfection, as over- or under-cooking will ruin the aroma, appearance and true flavour of the vegetable. Parsley, olives and mustard paste lend a variety of intriguing flavours to the otherwise bland mayonnaise making the spread quite tantalising. Serve the brocolli burger with an interesting accompaniment such as dill potatoes and carrots, to make a perfect party treat.
