Background
Fenugreek can be used as herb (dried leaves) or spice (seeds) or vegetable (fresh leaves).
Fresh fenugreek leaves are an ingredient in some curries, such as with potatoes in cuisines of the Indian subcontinent to make "aloo methi" ("potato fenugreek") curry. This side dish is very healthy and my favourite.
Ingredients
- 2 big bunch Methi leaves
- 5 -6 Garlic pods
- ¼ tsp Turmeric powder
- 3 Dried red chillies
- 2 Tbsp Chickpea flour
- Salt to taste

- In a pan, add oil, split black gram , red chillies, garlic. Fry for a minute.
- Add the fenugreek leaves, salt and turmeric. Cook till the water evaporates and leaves are fried.
- Add the chickpea flour to the fried leaves, fry till 2-3 minutes.
