very often at home. We have our own Murugai keerai tree at home, so my mom
comes up with different types of murungai keerai recipes. I had gone to my mom’s
house two days back, got lots of murungai keerai and prepared this keerai
muttai poriyal. Do try this simple, healthy and delicious keerai muttai poriyal

My fav poriyal! But I wont use water to cook the leaves .Used to steam it for few minutes by closing the pan with its lid in simmer mode.

ReplyDeletenice idea of of adding eggs in greens
ReplyDeleteHi Akka,I jus tried out ur recipe...came out really well..thanx for sharing with us ;) I jus have a doubt n would be happy if u could clarify :)..instead of cooking the greens in pan can I pressure cook the murungai keerai?thanx a lot
ReplyDeleteHi Lakshmi,
DeleteThanks for trying the recipe, dont cook the keerai in pressure cooker, the poriyal will not taste the same. cook it in kadai itself it cooks really fast. I hope the answer helps, thanks a lot for contacting me sis, do keep visiting for more and more delicious recipes.
