Methi leaves and potato are classic combination and they taste awesome together. Yesterday I made this simple stir fry to go with sambar rice. My daughter loves a simple potato roast and I added the methi leaves to it for the extra taste. My daughter has started liking the bitterness from methi leaves and so it was a hit at home. The potatoes don’t need any water to cook. Just cook on low flame and the water from potatoes and the methi leaes are enough to cook them and then the oil takes the part of roasting them. I have updated the post with step wise photos and new images.
Ingredients:
Potato-2
Methi / Fenugreek Leaves-1 bunch
Turmeric Powder-1/4 tsp
Red Chilly Powder-1/2 tsp
Coriander Powder-1 tsp
Cumin Seeds-1 tsp
Cumin Powder-1/2 tsp
Sesame Seeds – 1 tbs
Salt-to taste
Oil-2 tbs
Procedure:
Remove stem of methi leaves, wash and drain water. Chop it finely.
In a pan, add oil and add the spices.When they are cooked add in the cubed potatoes.
Add salt and mix well.
Keep on stirring on medium flame until the potatoes are evenly coated with spices.
Add the methi leaves sauté on low flame..
When the potatoes are done, add sesame seeds and mix well.
Transfer to a serving bowl.
Serve it along with sambar and hot steamed rice or with any variety rice. It also tastes great with rasam.
