Murungakeerai Poriyal / Stir Fried Drumstick Leaves

I remember having this poriyal often at home since we had a drumstick tree back at home. Drumsticks used to find its place in several dishes and we almost got tired of having it so often. Here I hardly find fresh drumsticks. During our trip to the Indian store, I found a bunch of fresh drumstick leaves and without thinking what I would be making with it, it just landed in our shopping cart.
I got this recipe from amma and made it the next day. And we really liked it. We had it with dal, rice and some papads. Makes a wholesome, nutritious meal!

Ingredients
Drumstick leaves - about 2 cups
Grated coconut - 2 tablespoons
Split moong dal - 1 tablespoon
Oil - 1 spoon
Onion - 1/2
Mustard seeds - 1 teaspoon
Urad dhal - 1 teaspoon
Curry leaves - few
Green chillies - 2
Salt to taste

Directions
Wash and remove the drumstick leaves from the stalk. Soak the split moong dal in water for a few minutes so that it cooks quickly.
In a skillet, add the oil and do the tempering with mustard seed, urad dhal and curry leaves. Add the chopped onions and green chillies and saute for a minute. Add the washed drumstick leaves, salt and soaked moong dal. Cover and cook for a minute.
