keerai poondu masiyal is one of my favorite dishes, it is very healthy and very
easy to make. My mom makes it atleast 2 to 3 times a week. It needs very less
ingredients and very less time to
prepare, but has a wonderful buttery taste. This masiyal is one easy way to
feed the small kids the greens. My amma makes this masiyal in "kal chatti" and "matthu" which is exactly the traditional way to make this masiyal.

Method
Clean
the mulai keerai, remove the hard part of the stem [thandu] and discard it. Keep the soft part of it as it has lots of fiber.
Add the cleaned mulai keerai to a big vessel and add lots of water. Add little sea salt and mix thoroughly. Soak for about 15-20 minutes to get rid of virus, pesticides, bacteria etc. Wash thoroughly 3-4 times and drain the water.
Thoroughly cleaned Mulai Keerai is ready for cooking.
In a
thick bottomed vessel/Chatti add the washed keerai, garlic, salt, 3/4 cup water and cook on low flame.
The Keerai will wilt down and cook in about 5-6 minutes. Now switch off the stove and let it cool down completely.
When
the greens are cooked and soft, mash it with “Matthu” or potato masher or just
run it in the mixer just once or twice. Transfer
it to a bowl and keep it aside.
In a
kadai heat oil and splutter mustard seeds. Now add cumin seeds, dry red
chillies and sauté for 15 sec.
Add this tempering to the already mashed keerai.
Delicious
and healthy mulai keerai masiyal is ready to be enjoyed. Serve it with hot
