@raogopinath :)

[d3daiM]

Hot mommas! Thanks for all the delicious recipes...!

[amydeshpande]

Hi, looks very good. I'am just learning and am wondering how much of the frozen Methi I should use. I buy 12 oz packages. Thank you so much.

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@amydeshpande

You can use about 1/2 package. Frozen methi is really compacted in the package so you get a lot more.

Is this very spicy? I want to make this but my family doesn't like very spicy dishes, so I wonder if I should just use a very little bit of chili powder and peppers? I do want it to be at least a little spicy if it's supposed to be that way.

[ShowMeTheCurry]

@PutRandomNameHere

The best part about Indian cuisine is that you can use many different spices but not make the dish spicy (hot). Just use less red chili powder or green chilies.

[bebovirgo]

Can I also make pudinah and palak rice the very similar way !

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Yes, you can substitute it with Palak (Spinach) but you will have to use a lot more in quantity. Methi has a very strong flavor so we use very little.

Check out our website for a great Spinach and Carrots Pulao, it is amazing!

[timzes]

girls, your cooking makes me hungry before its even cooked.

[musrua]

[chirpysang]

heyy ladies!! greens are my fav. and that too methi..yumm.. i always tot to make a diff recepie of methi.. n this is a good one will surely try it out...!! thanks!!

[AJ9211]

Wow this looks good will try. i'm one of the strange ppl that enjoys the bitter taste of methi and karela etc. I nearly always replace all palak dishes with methi. But I can see that in dishes like this it might be an idea to get lessen the bitterness. but seeing as its me i'll skip the salting bit and try it that way.

[yashrg]

Bravo! I still can't take the bitterness of methi or karela. methi-aloo that my aunt makes is one of my most dreaded sabzi. LOL

[sanober0000]

[purespirit9]

Perfect...I will try it. Thx girls 5/5

[mbhatt18]

i tried methi pulao!!!!! and that was fantastic.

thanks a lot girls!!!!!!!

[bethelcarmel]

hi! could u please suggest where to get saffron?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

You can find saffron at most Indian grocery stores or even some whole foods type stores. It is a bit expensive (the most expensive spice in the world), but just a little pinch goes a long way!

[bethelcarmel]

thank u!

[adibak2112]

U gals rock !!!

I cooked the exact way you showed and results are mind blowing. We Njoyed the pulav with Yogurt Raita, (its again you).

Thanks a ton for posting. I will be cooking all your recipes going fwd. I even recommend my friends.

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Thanks so much for the support!

[powerplantop]

That looks Great! Can I use dry Methi?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Yes, you can use Dry Fenugreek Leaves. This recipe uses approximately 1 cup of dry Methi Leaves.

[chatwithkarthz]

Where do I get fresh/dry fenugreek leaves (methi)? Are they available in the Indian grocery stores in the US? Can I use fenugreek powder instead? Thanks.

[ShowMeTheCurry]

You can get fresh or dry fenugreek leaves at most Indian grocery stores. The dry one is called "Kasuri Methi". The fresh ones are also available in some of the health food or farmer's market type stores. Using fenugreek powder will not give you the proper effect of this recipe.

[priyasethi2000]

I don't just like ur recipies but also little-little tips that u give along!

Thnks

[lildude8210]

We love you two!!! Thank you soooo much !

[sharmilak]

Nice recipe...will definately try...but I am just wondering if I will loose the wonderfull nutrients from that methi when i take out the water that way !

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Yes, unfortunately we do loose some nutrients. If you can handle the flavor and the bitterness then by all means don't salt it:)

[aarti4628]

thats awesome.. Thanks :)

[jjlinert]

This is making me hungry! It looks like a great recipe & now I'm inspired to cook it for dinner.

[Esunshine71]

good recipe. please can you tell me what is the best brand or name for basmati rice in the market! thank you

[ShowMeTheCurry]

There are a lot of good brands of Basmati rice. Look for a brand that is from Dehradun, they tend to be a notch better:)

[rajratt]

What if we can't get fresh fenugreek leaves.....can we use dried methi?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Yes, you can use Dry Fenugreek Leaves. This recipe uses approximately 1 cup of dry Methi Leaves.

[myuzikluvr]

Is that the same as kasuri methi? That's what I have and it does look like dried methi leaves...

[ShowMeTheCurry]

What we have used in this recipe is fresh fenugreek leaves but alternatively you can use Dried Fenugreek leaves.

There are different names and spellings to the same thing:

Kasturi Methi

Kasuri Methi

Kasoori Methi

Dried Fenugreek Leaves

[myuzikluvr]

Wow, that was quick! Thanks!! :)

[BigBrotherWii]

Hetal! Anuja!!! What's good with you two? I'm glad to see that both of you are gettint the recognition you deserve!

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Hi! Thanks! We are doing well.

[jananiak]

this is a great recipe..thanks guys!!

[tekobari]

They have always said "to taste" when it comes to fresh or dry hot items. There's no reason why you couldn't lessen the amount of heat in this recipe.

[bunnyluv41]

Looks yummy! I have to be careful with spicey foods; Just wondering if I could adjust the red chili powder.

[recoil53]

Food should always be done to your personal tastes. The result won't be as hot, but your stomach will like you.
