Keerai Masiyal (Keerai means spinach and masiyal means to mash it)
This recipe is very quick preparation and very tasty with vathalkozhambu/sambar. In my early days we grow arakeerai and it is full with iron.. There are many varieties of keerai like arai keerai mulakeerai palak, etc. In those days we prepare this masiyal in kalchatti. We are making masiyal very often but we never get those tastes
