Tips:

Choose the right broccoli: Look for broccoli florets that are tightly closed and deep green in color. Avoid florets that are yellow or brown, as these may be past their prime.
Blanch the broccoli: Blanching the broccoli helps to preserve its bright green color and crisp texture. To blanch the broccoli, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Immediately transfer the broccoli to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
Use a variety of toppings: The best curry broccoli salad is one that is packed with flavor and texture. Try adding a variety of toppings to your salad, such as chopped nuts, seeds, dried fruit, and crumbled cheese.
Make it a meal: Curry broccoli salad can be served as a side dish or as a main course. If you are serving it as a main course, add some protein to the salad, such as grilled chicken or tofu.
