Dear Ami,
Knowing my Krishna, He will tell me
Thankyou Chithra - the more the akkaravadisals, the merrier it is for me.
Love,
Chithra.

Dear Prabha,
Thanks.
This has been my collection since 1971, when I started using them in my baking oven. Belive some of them cost as little as 10 rs when I bought them !
Love,
Chithra.

Default Manathakkali Keerai Curry - Cures stomach & Mouth ulcers

Keerai leaves, chopped - 3 cups ( wash well & drain completely)

Moong dhal - 2 tbsp

Freshly grated coconut - 1-2 tbsp

Salt

To temper:

Oil - 2 tsp

Red chillies - 2, broken

Mustard seeds - 1 tsp

Urad dhal - 2 tsp

Soak dhal in boiling water in a MW shallow bowl for 30 mts.

Add 2 tbsp water to the keerai in a MW bowl, partly cover & MW Hi for 5 or more mts, depending on the freshness.

Rest for a few mts & drain.

MW dhal, partly coverd for 5 mts – it should just be cooked, must not become too soft or mushy.

Drain, this – use both drained waters in cooking since they are very nutritious.

In a MW bowl, add all the tempering ingredients, partly cover & MW for 3 mts.

Add both-drained keerai, sdhal & little salt.

Mix thoroughly and MW for 3-4 mts.

Remove & sprinkle coconut.

This goes well with all kuzambus which contain no dhal, like vatha kuzambu, morkuzambu etc.
