  2. Hi,

    I am new to this blog. I am in Brampton,Ontario. What are the keerai's that you get here? any idea? because i found out only paalak keerai and making the same recipe makes me bore. Please share your views.

    1. Hi Gaayathri,

      You will get all kinds of keerai like Agathi, Vallarai, Murungai, Ponnanganni and siru keerai at Kaveri Super Market (between Dundas E and Hurontario St, Mississauga). You have to call them and find out on which day it will be available.
