Aloo Methi Sprouts Stir Fry: Indian Recipe


aloo methi sprouts
I love methi (fenugreek) and enjoy aloo methi sabzi during winters, especially mom-made.

After marriage, I hardly get a chance to relish the sabzi made by her.

We miss aloo methi during summers. Of course, we do not find methi leaves during the hot season.

Recently, I found Radha Natarajan - a friend and fellow blogger - share methi sprouts. Click here to see how to make methi sprouts. Immediately, I made sprouts and was wondering what to do with it.

Today, I saw another post from Radha Natarajan, where she had used methi sprouts with potatoes. She shared the recipe with me and I made just a few adjustments and instantly went ahead with the recipe.

Now that I have tried the super easy recipe and was amazed to see the results. It tastes just like methi aloo sabzi. Oh I am loving it. My summer cravings for methi aloo have an answer now. Wow!

So in this video from the Odia cuisine, I present to you Odisha special Pakhala - the ancient Odia tradition of fermenting rice. Now coming back to making Pakhala at home.
