    Mulai Keerai Masiyal

    Keerai is a gift for us. We can get vit. and minerals from keerai verities. We can cook this as curry and kootu. Almost we will get keerai through out the year.

    Ingredients:

    1 bunch - Mulai keerai
    2 red chilly
    1/2 sp mustard seeds
    1/2 usud dal
    1 pinch asafetida
    1/2 sp oil
    Salt

    Method:

    Clean keerai and chop it.
    In a pan make seasoning with 1/2 sp oil.
    Put chopped keerai.
    Add asafetida. Mix well
    Pour 1/2 cup water and salt.
    Close the lid.
    Allow it to cook.
    Open and mash with a big 'karandi'.
    Remove and serve with 'vathal kuzhumbu' or serve with hot rice.
