Stir fried moringa leaves with peanuts is a typical south indian side dish prepared and served with steam cooked rice, roti or millet porridge. There are many variations in the same recipe,we prepare this version regularly at home since we like the crunchy texture and the flavor from ginger.

Nutritious moringa leaves are only used to prepare egg scramble or stir fry. Gently separating the leaves from stems is tricky, once we get the hang of removing the stems it is very easy to prepare a curry or stir fry.
Ingredients:
2 1/2 Cups Moringa Leaves
1 Inch Ginger Grated
10 Pods Garlic Sliced
1 Large Onion Finely Chopped
6 Green Chilies Slit
1 Cup Roasted and Husked Peanuts
Salt as per taste
Oil as required
Method:
Separate only the leaves from the stem, wash twice and reserve in a colander allowing excess moisture to drain.
Heat a wok on medium flame. Add 2 Tbsp oil, add onion, chilies, ginger, and garlic fry till onion turns transparent.
In a small mixer jar add the roasted peanuts pulse twice and form a coarse ground reserve.
Add the moringa leaves to the onion masala fry for a minute on high flame. Add 1/4 cup water cover and allow the moringa leaves to cook on low flame.
In 10 minutes the moringa leaves will wilt and reduce. Place on high flame allow excess moisture to evaporate and add the ground peanut powder and salt as per taste stir fry until all ingredients are well combined. Remove from flame and serve hot with rice or roti...enjoy 😊
