Drumstick Leaves Dal

#Dal - This is my version of a typical South Indian style tangy dal cooked with drumstick leaves. It is very yummy and is best enjoyed with hot steamed rice and a drizzle of some ghee if preferred and papad as accompaniment. This protein rice dal can also be relished with chapati. Drumstick leaves in general has a lot of health benefits and is very nutritious. They are used to make yummy dal (lentil curry) in many parts of India where it goes by different names. There are various methods of preparing it and every individual and home has their own unique way of cooking this dal.
