Aloo Methi ki Sabzi (Fenugreek Potato Vegetable)

Fenugreek (Methi) is used both as a herb (the leaves) and as a spice (the seed). Fenugreek seeds are commonly used in the preparations of pickles, curry powders and pastes. Fenugreek leaves on the other side are used to make curry (sabzi) with potatoes or and spinach & eaten with Roti or Parantha.



I love Aloo Methi and the aroma of the fresh fenugreek leaves. I made this today after a long time and enjoyed it with Hot Chapattis and Yogurt on the side. Chapatti, Sabzi and Yogurt makes it a perfect meal!
