This was one of my favourite childhood dishes.My mom used to make this curry often.Her moru curry was awesome.she used to pluck drumstick leaves from our backyard and  cook




Today I got a call from my dear friend and she was asking about my blog whether I have posted any new recipes.That was really sweet of her to ask and suddenly I got motivated to post something here.Thanks a ton dearieeee...Surprisingly I have made this moru curry today.My husband went down in the morning for a walk and came back with a big bunch of fresh drumstick leaves.The association people were cutting down the drumstick tree in our premises.Without a second thought he asked them for some leaves which they offered happily.Drumstick leaves have immense health benefits..I made moru curry as well as muringayila mutta thoran
