.Addition of methi leaves makes it more healthy and flavourful.I don’t follow a particular recipe.I make it based on the ingredients i have in my pantry.Sometimes i make the same with kasoori methi & baby potatoes too.It turns out well.But in this post,i have shared the basic aloo methi curry recipe using fresh methi leaves.Do try this recipe.Its a yummy side dish for
dal rice and
curd rice.It also goes well with our South Indian
Sambar sadam and
Rasam ![Smile with tongue out](//lh6.ggpht.com/-8dLrWzW7hd4/UyfPy7vXu9I/AAAAAAAAZis/WMkorPtMmq4/wlEmoticon-smilewithtongueout2.png?imgmax=800)

Note
- For variations,use sambar powder instead of red chilli and dhania powder.
- Adding garam masala pwd is optional.Skip if u don’t like.
- I loved adding lemon juice at the end.It help to balance all the taste.But add less..
- U can also use kasoori methi instead of using fresh leaves.In that case,use 2-3 tbsp crushing in ur hands.
- U can always use baby potatoes in place of bigger ones.For this recipe,u can add 10-12 small ones.
