Total Time: 30 mins

Ingredients

  1. 2 tbsp rice
  2. One dry Red Chilly
  3. 2.5 cups Water
  4. Four chopped Ladies Finger
  5. One sliced Onion
  6. One Green Chilly [slit]
  7. Salt as required
  8. 2 cups Drumstick Leaves
  9. 1/4 cup Grated Coconut

Step 1 – Making Rice Powder

Take 2 tbsp of Rice along with one dry red chilly in a Pan. Keep the flame at low heat and dry roast the mixture for 4 to 5 minutes. Once it is cool down, grind the mix as a coarse powder. This powder is useful in a later step.

Step 2 – Making Drumstick/Moringa Leaves

Add 2 cups of water, four chopped Ladies Finger, a sliced Onion, a slit Green Chilly and required salt in a Pan. You can use either Raw Banana or Tapioca instead of Ladies Finger. Keep the flame at medium heat and cook it for 5 to 8 minutes with a partially covered lid.

Its time to add 2 cups of raw Drumstick/Moringa leaves right after the veggies are cooked properly. Mix well and cook it for 6 to 8 minutes. Spread the roasted rice powder. Mash it well with a spoon to avoid lumps.

Once it starts boiling, add 1/4 cup of grated Coconut. Mix it well and cook for five more minutes. Additionally, add 1/2 cup of water to adjust the consistency. Finally, mix it for a little while this time, and now the healthy side dish is ready!
