Methi Paratha Recipe

By WhenWeEat
Total Time: 15 minutes 
Category: Breakfast/Entrée

Paratha is almost a staple item in the Indian subcontinent. It is prepared by frying with ghee (clarified butter). However, now-a-days people may prefer to bake it (mainly for health reasons). Methi (Fenugreek) leaves have high nutrition value and should be included in your diet at least once a week. It is especially beneficial for women in their early 40s. Paratha made from methi leaves is a popular dish in India and some of its neighboring countries like Bangladesh, Burma, etc.
Moreover, Methi Paratha recipe is not time consuming and you can always skip the trouble of cooking another curry and serve it with pickle and butter/chilled yoghurt as per your preference.
