After wonderful vacation kids are back to school and I am back to blogging. Today I am sharing a traditional keerai masiyal/gravy recipe, which was done by my maternal grandma (Pictures below). Also this masiyal tastes great when you mash it by hand using mathu/masher instead of grinding it in mixie/food processor. This green leaf is called as Pacha Keerai (பாச்சா) or Kaatu Keerai (காட்டு கீரை) in Tamil and it usually grows in or near the farm fields or in wet lands (Pictures below). It’s hard to get the same keerai in markets but it tastes similar to Verdolaga/Paruppu Keerai that you can get in Indian Stores. So you can make the masiyal/gravy in the same procedure with Verdolaga or any available greens.
The below one is the green leaves/keerai I am talking about…
We tasted this masiyal several times during our stay becoz its healthy and one easily available leaf in our farm. Hence sharing few of the farm pictures here…
