Tips
Rice :
1.Brown Rice or Millets also can be used instead of White rice.
Drumstick Leaves Powder:
-
Pluck the leaves, wash them and dry them in shade.
-
You can use a little Tamarind if you like the tangy taste, but I haven't used it. Lemon can also be used as per taste. Jaggery also can be added while grinding the powder.

I used only one Red chilli and used Pepper powder at the end to balance, but you can use more Red chillies, if you like.

You can always store some Drumstick leaves powder and make this instantly.
