    Murungai Keerai Soup is a simple soup made with drumstick leaves.Drumstick leaves which is  commonly known as Moringa leaves has a lot of medicinal benefits, rich in iron and protein, very good for your eyes too.

    When I was carrying gugu my heamoglobin count was not steady and I was strongly advised to have drumstick leaves atleast 4 times a week.We don’t have neighbours having this tree nearby so our maid used to pluck from her house and bring it for me daily, my mother used to make poriyal or soup with it.Yes the only work I was supposed to do was to eat and sleep such pampering during pregnancy days 😉 And guess that’s the only time I had greens without any complaints almost daily 😉

    The weather is chill, so made this soup yesterday.Here is a simple drumstick leaves soup recipe for you all.Do try this out!

    • 1 and 1/2 cups drumstick leaves
    • 1/2 teaspoon jeera
    • 1 tablespoon crushed garlic

    • 1 teaspoon oil

    • Pluck the drumstick leaves from the stem and set aside.If the leaves are tender then the tiny stems can be added too.Rinse it well twice and drain water.Set aside.
    • Heat oil in a pan - add jeera let it crackle,add crushed garlic.
    • Saute for a min, then add onion and required salt.
    • Saute till golden then add tomato,saute till tomatoes turn mushy and raw smell leaves.
    • Now add cleaned drumstick leaves.Saute for 2 to 3 mins until the raw smell leaves.I transferred the mixture to a sauce pan.
    • Add water and let it boil for a good 5 mins.
    • When its boiling add little more salt(if needed) and pepper.Cook for a minute and switch off.

    Notes

    • You can filter the soup alone and give for kids below 5yrs incase if they find it hard to chew the leaves.
    • I do not prefer grinding the leaves as it might give a bitter taste.
    • Always cook the drumstick leaves fresh when it is plucked or the next day.
    • This is a simple version, you can enhance the taste by adding 1/4 cup coconut milk or even cooked dal water.
