This week has been a drumstick week for me.. as my husband had brought a good number of drumsticks from the grocery.
Drumstick is a very healthy vegetable,it serves as a source of iron,calcium,potassium and many other vitamins and minerals.In some parts of tamil nadu drumsticks are used in sambar s and other curries especially every tuesday and friday, when they refrain from having non vegetarian food.
So I am trying to cook them in different ways to utilise them.
This recipie here is a simple combination of drumsticks and dhal yet appetising and great to have with rice.
Ingredients
Dhal-1/2 cup I used masoor dhal my fav...
Drumstick-2 nos chopped into medium pieces
Turmeric powder-1/2 tsp
Chilly powder-1 tsp
Green chillies -1 spit into two
Salt to taste.
For seasoning
Baby onions-3-4
Few curry leaves
Mustard seeds-1tsp
Red chillies-few broken pieces
Directions
Pressure cook dhal and drumsticks for 2-3 whistles with chilly powder,turmeric powder,salt and green chilly.
Take a pan add oil,splutter mustard seeds, add chopped onions fry for a minute, add curry leaves,and broken chillies and saute for few seconds.
Pour this onto the pressure cooked mixture and mix well.
You could also add 2-3 green mango slices if you wish.
