The Exotic Moringa Oleifera

I think this such trees are coming to their extinction. I bought these moringa pods at one of the supermarkets here and the price was rather expensive too. When I browsed through the internet...there are actually countries in some parts of the world are planting these trees as they are very beneficial to our health in deed...(*,*)...



It has been ages that I did not cook these vegies and once I got them....I cooked the way my mom cooked when we were very little. I could still remember how we loved to savour these exotic vegies. I cooked the cut pods in curry with some prawns.

We have that here in the Philippines but I've never tried cooking the pods just the leaves.
