ALOO METHI

                       This is a very common north Indian dish, a combination of  potato and fresh fenugreek leaves. But I make it little different by incorporating peanuts.

Potatoes boiled and diced - 2 cups
Fresh fenugreek leaves - 4 cups
Oil -2 tbsp
Cumin seed - 1 tsp
Turmeric powder -1/2 tsp
Red chilli powder - 1/2 tsp
Garlic - 4-5 cloves
Peanuts dry roasted - 10-12
Coriander powder  - 1 tsp
Amchor powder - 1 tsp
Asafoetida  -  1/4 tsp
Salt to taste

METHOD:

• Wash and chop fenugreek leaves.
• Put garlic and peanuts in a processor n process it into a coarse mixture.
• Heat oil in a pan then add cumin seeds
• When it crackles add potatoes and turmeric powder, keep stirring it.
• Now add the peanut mixture and let it cook for 2-3 mins.
• Then add red chilli powder, coriander powder, amchor powder, salt and asafoetida.
