Lentils Keerai (Paruppu Keerai) is a nutritious leafy green commonly used in South Indian cooking. It has a mild, slightly tangy flavor and becomes soft when cooked, making it ideal for everyday dishes. Rich in iron, calcium, fiber, and essential vitamins, it helps improve blood health, support digestion, and boost immunity. This keerai pairs perfectly with lentils (paruppu) and is often prepared as kootu, dal, or poriyal, offering a wholesome and comforting addition to daily meals.
