During my childhood days, we used to have drumstick tree in our garden where my amma used to pluck fresh flowers as well as leaves of course for preparing delicious delight. These are very good in Iron and a good agent of anti / viruses and also have some medicinal value. I truly miss having drumstick flowers these days :(
Here luckily after so many years, when we had a visit to our relatives place in Coimbatore, there my aunt had kept for me few stock from her garden, knowing I love them like hell. Aww that's so sweet of her :) Now coming back to the recipe, these flowers are soo tender that it gets cooked in a min. The mix of coconut with Indian spices combine together brings out the heavenly flavours of each ingredients. We Konkani's love them to have as it is :) No doubt even u guys would love if u try this :)
INGREDIENTS
2 1/2 Cup Drumstick flower (cleaned)
1 tsp Mustard seeds
1 tsp Urad dal
2 3 Fenugreek seeds
1/4 Cup Grated coconut
1/2 tsp Turmeric powder
1 1/2 tsp Chilly powder
