Hello everyone..

How are you all? After the Christmas and New Year celebrations, we have started working normally again, right?

So, after a short break, I came back to the @naturalmedicine community of the hive blog with a delicious and very healthy recipe.

That is the Mukunwanna plant This plant is known by the botanical name of Alternanthera sessilis and in Ayurveda it is also known as Meenakshi.

It is a very familiar type of plant among the people of Sri Lanka.

It can be easily grown in humid environments. This plant is often seen in homes and is very nutritious.

More about this plant has high medicinal value. Mukunuwanna is used in Ayurveda to alleviate many diseases.

Commercially, these are a very popular vegetable in Sri Lanka and belong to the category of leafy vegetables.

Now let's see the nutrients in 100g of Mukununwanna plants.

🌿 Protein 3.0 g
🌿 carbohydrates 10.76 g
🌿 Dietary Fiber 6.47 g
🌿 Ca 523.97 mg
🌿 Mg 177.02 mg
🌿 K 917.84 mg
🌿 Zn 3.47 mg
🌿 ß-carotene 6492 mcg
🌿 VitC 33.86 mg

These can be used as a paste, as a curry and also as a porridge.

Now let's see what are the health benefits of eating mukununwanna leaves.

🥗 Increases nervous system activity

Enzymes in mukunumana can regulate the central nervous system and these improve sleep quality.
And these cool the body and relax the eyes and brain.
They are beneficial for many diseases related to the nervous system and also increase memory.

🥗 Destroys cancer cells.

These mix with the blood and remove toxins and cancer cells from the body and reduce the risk of cancer.
It also has a high ability to kill germs and heal wounds.

🥗 Good for night blindness.

It strengthens the optic nerve and increases eyesight and acts as the best medicine for eye diseases.

Now let's see how to make mukununa, one of the most beneficial leafy vegetables.

INGREDIENTS

Mukununwanna leaves 100 g
Onions 5g
Greted coconut 10 g
Salt 1/2 tea spoon
Curry leaves 4/5

STEP 01

First of all, choose the mukununwanna well and wash it several times with salted water.
Then cut it thinly. Cut the red onion and garlic. If you like, chop green chilies as well. I did not use spices because my daughter is small.

STEP 02

Then add some oil to a pan and when it heats up, add curry leaves, onions and garlic.
After that add lime only if needed to add when it is tempered.

Adding a little coconut oil preserves the beautiful green Colour of the leaves and makes it easier for the body to absorb their nutrients.

I hope you are interested in my recipe today. So see you in the Next post..bye.😊😊
