About Sivapu thandankeerai kootu
Sivapu Thandankeerai Kootu is a wholesome South Indian dish made with red amaranth leaves (Sivapu Thandankeerai), moong dal (yellow lentils), coconut, and a blend of aromatic spices. Originating from Tamil Nadu, this kootu is a nutrient-packed side dish commonly paired with rice or chapati. Red amaranth leaves are rich in iron, calcium, and antioxidants, supporting bone health and immunity. Moong dal provides protein and dietary fiber, promoting digestion and sustained energy. The addition of coconut adds flavor and healthy fats, while tempered spices like mustard seeds, cumin, and turmeric contribute anti-inflammatory benefits. Sivapu Thandankeerai Kootu is low in calories and cholesterol-free, making it suitable for heart health. However, moderation is advised for coconut usage due to its saturated fat content for those mindful of fat intake. A perfect blend of taste and nutrition, this dish highlights the balance of traditional Indian cooking.
