Murunga

Fresh Murunga, also known as drumstick, is a popular vegetable widely used in Sri Lankan and South Asian cuisine. It has a distinctive flavour and tender texture when cooked, making it a delicious addition to a variety of traditional dishes. Murunga is commonly prepared as a coconut milk curry, tempered dish, or added to mixed vegetable curries and soups. The long, slender pods can be cut into smaller pieces before cooking, allowing the flavour to blend beautifully with spices and coconut milk. Fresh Murunga is a versatile kitchen ingredient that adds variety and traditional taste to everyday meals and homemade recipes.
