DrumStick(Munagakada) Patoli

Preparation of DrumStick (Munagakada) Patoli:

DrumSticks are mostly used in sambar and curries. But I am going to post a different recipe using drumstick. I hope U will like this recipe. Lets see some info about drumstick.

Moringa derives from the Tamil word murungai. The Chinese name, pronounced la mu in Mandarin and lat mok in Cantonese, means "spicy (hot) wood" and is reminiscent of the English name, "horseradish tree".

The immature seed pods, called "drumsticks", are commonly consumed in South Asia. They are prepared by parboiling, and cooked in a sauce until soft. The seed pods are particularly high in vitamin C.

In Ayurvedic traditional medicine, the leaves are believed to affect blood pressure and glucose levels.

Lets see the preparation

Ingredients
Drumsticks - 3(chopped into medium pieces)
Yellow split Moongdal - 1 cup
Ginger - small piece
Green chillies - 3
