Spring onions tastes well and also very healthy for our body. We can eat both the white bulb and the green leaf. Spring onions are an excellent source of vitamin C and calcium. They are also a good source of dietary fibre and vitamins A and B6, thiamine, folate and minerals (potassium, copper, chromium, manganese, iron). Spring onions are good for people with diabetes.
Usually we make paruppu usili using banana flower/ Vazhaipoo or beans. This is a paruppu usili in which I have used spring onions. This is a very simple recipe.
