Earlier i posted a curry that you can make with these Leaves, but why stop there?
This is a very common dish in our place as Drumstick leaves grow in our backyards and its just very common to make them.
The only downside that i see is the time and manual work needed to take them off from the stem. If you are ready to see ahead of that then you will sure love this
Ingredients (Serves 2)
Leaves - 125 gms
Grated Coconut - 1/4 - 1/2 cup
