Aarai Keerai Masiyal | Tamil Brahmin Style Keerai Recipe

Aarai Keerai Masiyal

There can never be a day without keerai/ greens in my parents place. Amma loves vegetables and she always make sure that we get a dose of veggies as part of our everyday meals. I have picked this good habit of eating greens from her. Be it veg or non veg recipes there will always be vegetables as sides in the form of poriyals or frys. I love Amma's version of keerai she makes so many varieties that I never fail to miss out when ever I come home and also share them with all of you here. This Arai keerai masiyal is a mix of dal and greens together with a lovely flavour that it can be made as a main curry to go with white rice and sides like poryial or fry.

Mulai Keerai Masiyal Recipe

Amma always makes sure she cooks atleast 2-3 kinds of vegetables everyday. If there is a poriyal then there will be a keerai. My last visit home she made this delicious Mulai keerai masiyal (amarnath leaves) which went so well with white rice and yam roast. When I posted the recipe for yam roast many of you commented on the keerai which was in the bg. Here is the recipe to a simple south Indian masiyal. The same recipe can be followed for any kind of greens as long as it is not of the bitter variety. You can pair this with white rice, ghee and a vegetable side.
