Green Gongura (Green Roselle Leaves) – Description
Green Gongura, also known as green roselle leaves, is a popular leafy green widely used in South Indian cooking, particularly in Andhra and Telangana cuisines. Compared to red gongura, green gongura has a milder tangy flavor with a subtle sourness, making it versatile and easy to pair with many dishes.
It is rich in vitamins A and C, iron, calcium, and dietary fiber, supporting digestion, immunity, and overall wellness. Green gongura is commonly used in pachadi (chutney), dal, curries, soups, and stir-fries, where it adds a refreshing taste without overpowering other ingredients.
Fresh green gongura leaves are soft, aromatic, and best cooked lightly to preserve their natural flavor, bright color, and nutritional benefits.
