Shepuche Pole

Shepuche pole makes a healthy breakfast recipe. Young and old everyone loves this Goan traditional recipe because of the unique taste and sweet flavour. My daughter loves these green dosa more than the regular South Indian dosa and carries them in school tiffin box. These can also be prepared for evening snacks or dinner.

What is dill leaves?

Dill leaves or dill weed greens are known as “Shepu” in Goa and “Suva” in Karnataka. The leaves are fern like, full of flavour and aromatic. Use fresh dill leaves in cooking. These leaves can be added to make different types of stir fries, curries, dosas, snacks, etc. You can even add it to flat breads like rice or jowar rotis.

If you are wondering how to clean dill leaves, then I want to tell you that it is not difficult. Just cut the roots and discard. Wash the greens gently under running tap water. Pat dry and spread them on a plate so that they dry. After drying, wrap in a damp kitchen towel and store in fridge. It remains good for up to 2 days.
