Aloo Methi is one of the yummy curry variety that goes well with Pulao, Fried rice or any Indian Breads. I have already published one version of the aloo methi recipe. This is one variation of doing aloo methi. Aloo Methi is a delicious dish made with potatoes, fenugreek leaves, and a combination of spices. We tend to add kasoori methi in most of the veg gravies which gives a nice flavour to the dish. Fresh Methi leaves added in sambar, dal or potatoes gives a wonderful taste and flavour to the whole dish. Relish any Indian Breads or Pulao with yummy Aloo Methi and enjoy with your family…

Aloo Methi Recipe | Aloo Methi Method II
Ingredients:
Potatoes
5-6
Fresh Fenugreek Leaves
1 Cup
Green Chilli
2
Salt
To taste
Turmeric Powder
1/2 teaspoon
Coriander Powder
1 teaspoon
Garam Masala
1/4 teaspoon
Oil
1 tablespoon
Cumin Seeds
1 teaspoon
Method:
Pluck the leaves from fenugreek leaves and wash it twice or thrice, We don’t need to chop the fenugreek leaves. we can use the whole leaves as such, Take these washed fenugreek leaves in a plate aside. Peel the skin of potatoes and chop them into medium sized cubes. Soak the cubed potatoes in water to prevent the dis-colourisation.
Heat oil in a pan and add cumin seeds. When the cumin seeds starts to sputter, Add chopped green chillies and saute it for couple of seconds. Then add cubed potatoes and toss them well.
Then add turmeric powder and coriander powder and mix well.
Next, add washed fenugreek leaves to the pan and give it a good mix. Then sprinkle some water along with salt and cover the pan with a lid and allow the potatoes to cook till they are soft and tender.
Occasionally mix the curry once or twice so that the potatoes are not getting burnt or getting stuck to the bottom of the pan. But do use a wooden spatula or silicon spatula to make sure not to mash the potatoes. When the potatoes are nicely cooked, add garam masala and switch off the flame
