Vetrillai Seeraga Sadham | Betel Leaves Rice Recipe

January 31, 2014 By Sangeetha Priya 18 Comments

Betel Leaves/Vetrilai is very good source for digestion. I have seen this plant in my uncle’s place, weekly they pick the matured leaves and send to market for sale. Now I feel bad as I missed the chance to click pictures of that plant/kodi. I will share the pictures of the betel garden in future here in this same post soon… Now coming to the recipe, for Pongal I bought this betel leaves in bunch to offer God and the left overs I used it to make this rice.

This is a perfect healthy cumin flavored one pot meal/sadham with ground betel paste. I also added few raw sprouted moong bean, which makes it even more healthier…This rice suits all age groups, especially my kids liked it with a tsp of ghee….
