Karuveppilai Thogayal Curry Leaves Thuvayal

January 23, 2019 By Sangeetha Priya 3 Comments

Karuveppilai Thogayal Curry Leaves Thuvayal

Feeding nutritious food for kids is usually all moms blue, so am I. I am much concerned about their hair maintenance, so started some precaution measure to prevent hair loss and grey hair. For that I chose an inexpensive and very common natural health benefits provider who stays fresh in most of our backyard. Its none other than

Curry Patta / Karuveppilai ie Murraya koenigii . Not only its good to stimulate hair growth it gives so much other healthy benefits which I am going to discuss in my next post Homemade Curry leaves Powder (Recipe Soon). When we add sprigs in day to day cooking they just ignore and keep it separately in the corner of the plate. So that’s the reason behind this Karuveppilai Thogayal / Chutney and it goes very well with rice and ghee combo or Tiffin Varieties. Also stay tuned for upcoming Healthy Recipes.

PS : I am not a doctor or nutritionist or sponsor of anything mentioned here in this post, Just sharing my thoughts and benefits that happened to us.
