CURRY LEAVES ADAI

Curry leaves are good for health.  It cures the stomach related issues, good for hair growth etc.  I always add the curry leaves while grinding so that it does not go waste as we tend to remove and throw the same while eating.

Yesterday, I was thinking of making adai.  But after eating the same, the stomach is very full and I used to get gas problems because of the chana and tuvar dal.  So I thought of incorporating few curry leaves in it and making the adai. Although we use curry leaves while making adai, we use less quantity.  

This adai was awesome with white butter and jaggery and with the besan ghattee ki achar recently I made.
