Fenugreek or Methi leaves are healthy herbs loaded with vitamins and minerals including Vit C and Iron. The upside is, it tastes fantastic too with its unique flavour and aroma.
It's this beautiful flavour and aroma that makes Methi Pulao a delicious treat, that's so easy to create too!
Here it is, my version of METHI PULAO:
Ingredients: 1 bunch of Fenugreek leaves washed and chopped finely, handful green peas, 1 onion chopped, some cashews (can be omitted), a few chillies as per taste, 1 tsp urid daal, 1 tsp cumin seeds, 1 tsp garlic, 1 tsp mustard seeds, 1 tsp turmeric powder, 1 tsp garam masala, small cinnamon stick, 1 cup cooked and cooled rice, salt to taste, a bit of oil and ghee.
Make:
1. Cook the rice and let it cool so that it is fluffy and not sticky.
2. In a pan, saute in a little oil and ghee, the urid daal, cumin seeds, mustard seeds, cashews, chillies and garlic. Add onion, cinnamon stick and turmeric powder.
3. Next add in the chopped Fenugreek leaves and peas. Add salt and garam masala, mix well and cover. Cook for 5 to 8 minutes and lower the flame.
4. Add in the cooled rice and toss gently to combine well. Take care not to mix heavily. Turn off flame, cover and rest for a few minutes before serving hot with Raita.
