Aloo methi -A simple and flavourful stir fry of fresh fenugreek and potatoes

Aloo methi is a classic North Indian stir fry /Dry curry,full of rustic and simple flavours.Fenugreek have a strong flavour, is slightly bitter in taste and give a very distinct and unique taste to the dish.I cook methi with just few spices to enhance the flavour.

Fenugreek/methi is a seasonal winter vegetable,but now this is available through out the year. Fresh leaves are used to make curry,stir fries and to make parathas etc.The dried leaves of fenugreek are refered as– kasoori methi and is also used for flavouring curries. Lowering of cholesterol and fighting diabetes are just some of the fenugreek benefits that has on your health.

The seeds of fenugreek-Methi dana is used for tempering curries and in pickles and as methi is very good for health so used for the treatment of Diabetes,artheritis,high cholesterol,gas troubles and many more.
