June 10, 2014 by Premalatha Aravindhan 9 Comments

Murungai Keerai Poriyal
Murungai Keerai (Drumstick Leaves) are green leafy vegetables which contains protein. Also, the drumstick leaves are rich in Vitamin A, B-Complex and many more minerals. It should be there in our routine diet. Murungai Keerai (Drumstick Leaves) Poriyal is a delicious side dish and goes well with any  kuzhambu varieties . Only the cleaning part takes time but its good to spend time for a good cause isn’t it?
When consuming proper iron in our regular meal, it helps to reduce weight. I have added dal in this recipe but do try this with kollu,it taste very good at the same time its very good for weight watchers.

    Wow! Those drumstick leaves look so deep green and full of iron… wonder if I could try this with kale, as I can’t get those leaves here?
