Murungai
Keerai thanni is one
of my favorite recipes that my mom makes very often. It is usually very
difficult to make kids eat the greens, but when we make this keerai thanni and
give, they will just love it. I love the
fresh murungai keerai/drumstick leaves which we get in our backyard [organic], cook it with kazhani thanni [rice washed water] along with onions,
green chilles and the final touch of adding coconut milk is just amazing. We usually
make this for lunch and serve with steam cooked white rice.
In my
earlier post I have shared about the health benefits of Murungai Keerai, I
would love to mention it here as well. Drumstick leaves have wonderful
medicinal properties. They have essential amino acids for the healthy
functioning of our body. Regular consumption of drumstick leaves is highly
recommended for anemic people. They are rich sources of antioxidants, proteins,
potassium, vitamin A, C, B3, B2, iron and magnesium. They help in maintaining
the blood sugar levels. Keeping all the health benefits in mind do try out the
Murungai Keerai Thanni and post your feedback here.
