A big big bunch of fresh tender AraiKeerai from a friend’s farm is used up in this recipe which is very tasty and healthy one to be paired with hot rice. This recipe is very unique in the sense it is both Paruppu Kootu as well as Morkootu. With crispy and crunchy tadka of Channa dhall, it can even be relished as a meal by itself.
AraiKeerai has lot of medicinal and health benefits. It cures cold and fever. Helps in treating Asthma. Beneficial for pregnant women and postpartum. Treats constipation issues.
I am a full-time UX Architect in Healthcare IT with a great passion for cooking. I love experimenting with healthy and traditional food. Being an Agriculture graduate turned Medical Geneticist, I try to source organically grown ingredients from farmers and added the health benefits of each ingredient in most of the recipes that are posted here. This is more a personal database (hence DB in the name) of my family recipes and my trials on organic ingredients.
