Dill Leaves called as Shepu in Marathi and Sabbasige soppu in Kannada is a simple with a decent fragrance leafy vegetable available through out the year. The most common form of using this vegetable in Indian cuisine is a quick stir fry served along with Roti/Chapati. The stir fry sabzi can be prepared with any of the dals like moong dal / toor dal by soaking it for required time. I usually make Pulav on the weekends as a Brunch since we wake up very late :) This will be a mix of almost all the vegetables that I find in my kitchen!
