Kale is one tough leafy vegetable with woodsy stalks and chewy leaves similar to Murungai Keerai, leaving us with few recipe options. Cooking this with lentils was considerably easy for intake with minimal effort. Tried this with Bengal gram, following traditional kootu preparation and had no problem with picky eaters. Fresh kale (green or purple) belong to the Wild cabbage / Broccoli family, rich in anti-oxidants with high nutrition content. These type of veggies usually get a red carpet welcome in my kitchen and will be honoured with lentil studded crown.

Kale greens are highly nutritious vegetable relating to the wild cabbage family. Fresh kale leaves when sauteed and seasoned in our Indian style taste similar to that of Murungai keerai (Drumstick leaves). They also blend well with few veggie combination and Potato stands number one among them. This subzi is all about potato pairing with greens and stir-fried.

Boy Choy is Chinese Cabbage with mild, sweet and extremely adapatable. They come in two varieties, either large bunch with matured leaf or as Baby Bok Choy, short stems with smaller leaf and available all year long in most super markets, farmers market or Chinese Stores.
