Veppam Poo Sadam / Neem Flower Rice

Veppam Poo (Neem Flower) is a very medicinal ingredients and has a lot of advantages.. If you have a neem tree in the house, then fresh flowers are easy, but otherwise you could get dried neem flowers from many grocery shops or Naattu Marundhu Kadai (Natural medicine shops / Health Food stores). This rice is very flavorful, soothing and comforting...
