There's a profusion of local greens and herbs In the cooking here. Sekar is aghast at what looks like the garden leaves and weeds in a dish. 😄
But I am enjoying the production of greens in the menu. Wild dhania and mint has a different flavour from what I use.
Last evening was a bamboo shot keerai dish that I liked. As also the potato and herbs.
Then today we tried bhoot jolakhia - small bits, I at one of those little pieces. And survived.
Dinner - banana flower poriyal- all chopped and tender. No removal of those stamens, no removal of the bracts. Now that is convenient. Selvi would approve.
