Aloo Methi Ki Sabzi Recipe (Potato Fenugreek Recipe) is a Traditional Indian Dish, cooked with Aloo (Potatoes) and Methi (Fenugreek). Generally Aloo Methi is served as a main course dish with hot Indian Chapatis. But I sometimes serve it as a side dish with Indian Meal.
Aloo Methi ki Sabji is cooked in almost every Indian household and most of my readers do ask me that their Methi leaves turns bitter after cooking. So here is the solution for that. If you want to remove sourness from Methi leaves, then wash it 2-3 times in fresh water and while cooking it with any other ingredients such as potato, peas, paneer or anything, you just need to add little sugar and dry mango powder (Amchur) altogether. This is the best way to remove the bitterness from methi leaves.
