Ponnanganni
Keerai is called as “Dwarf Copperleaf” in English, is a green variety available throughout
the year. The name “Ponnanganni” means glow like gold. It is loaded with iron,
calcium and other vital nutrients that make our hair and skin glow. When
Ponnanganni is taken for a period of 48 days regularly, it heals our body of
all kinds of deficiency and reduces the body heat, as it is an excellent body
coolant. Ponnanganni is specifically recommended for eye ailments, asthma,
gonorrhoea, syphilis. Most of them avoid these types of greens, because they do
not know how to cook them or to use them. A very simple ponnanganni keerai
poriyal/stir fry included twice or thrice a week in our diet is a wonderful
remedy to stay healthy. Ponnanganni oil/thailam is very famous in Tamil Nadu
and is used for treating headaches and also for treating excessive body heat
during the summer months. For now friends I am going to share this Ponnanganni
Keerai poriyal, do try it for sure and post your comments. Meanwhile do check out other Keerai Recipes here.
